Cops Decry Barriers In War With Pirates
The Interior Ministry and its Economic Security Department are being hindered in their efforts to clampdown on counterfeiters in part due to a lack of cooperation from the West.
Such factors as low purchasing power and mild punishments f or offenders, could help push up the number of factories making pirated CDs and DVDs.
Russia has become the world’s leading exporter of illegal disks and has the biggest domestic market for pirated music after China.
But while the West often criticizes Russia for not doing enough to root out piracy, it does little to help. The “paradoxical situation” is that all the sophisticated machines needed to mass-produce CDs and DVDs come from abroad.
Pirates use false documentation to bring in the machines. If the Customs authorities had some pre-emptive information from the West, they would already be waiting for the equipment at the customs.
Deputy director of the Russian anti-piracy Organization said that the state – and not Western governments – should be faulted for the import of disk-copying equipment. Licensed DVDs – which retail for up to 500 rubles but cost 10 rubles to make – have been priced out of the market, opening the way for counterfeiters. Furthermore, those pirates who are caught often get off much too easily.
Last year, 446 people were found guilty of violating intellectual property rights and trademark law, but only 11 of them were sentenced to time in jail. The rest got away with fines and suspended sentences.
