    C) Both nations want to export steel.

    Explanation:

    Equilibrium price is the economic market situation where the quantity demanded of a commodity and the quantity supplied are equal. Both nations, alpha and beta would want to supply or export more steel because at the price of $1 both nations supplied less than the quantity which was demanded. More imports will be probably needed here which iwill push up their supply.
