Tom Gionvanetti, National Review; Why Is the U.S. Surrendering the Global IP System to China?
"What a coup it will be for China to gain control over the global IP
system at the same time that the U.S. is pressuring China over IP theft —
and what a monumental miscalculation by those President Trump has
trusted to further one of his key foreign-policy goals. Talk about
playing the long game vs. the short game.
The election for WIPO’s top spot is on March 7. Candidates for the
directorship remain from Japan, Singapore, and Colombia, and all of
these would be superior choices from the perspective of the U.S. and
other nations that create the kinds of innovative products that are
targets of Chinese espionage and theft. But only immediate attention
from the White House can prevent WIPO from becoming dominated by China,
which would pose risks to the entire global IP system, and thus to U.S.
security and innovation."
