RIAA Turns Up Heat on IP Piracy in Russia

The RIAA issued a statement on Tuesday lauding the passage of a resolution last week by the U.S. Senate that asked Russia to work harder to fight piracy of music, software and other works of intellectual property protected by international copyright laws.

 

The measure was passed by the House of Representatives in November, and threatens to hinder Russia’s bid to enter the World Trade Organization if the country refuses to increase its efforts to halt piracy.

 

Last Friday, the White House reported that President Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke by telephone and discussed the ramifications of the Congressional request, among other things.
