Kratkoročno gledano, kažu neki ekonomisti, priliv jeftinih uvoznih proizvoda je koristan, jer bi inače potražnja povećala cijene domaćih proizvoda, što bi moglo dovesti do inflatorne krize.
In the short term, some economists say, the influx of cheap imports is beneficial, since otherwise demand would drive prices of domestic products upwards, possibly triggering an inflationary crisis.
