US authorities have named Ukraine as the country with the worst record on protecting intellectual property.
美国当局点名乌克兰为保护知识产权最差的国家。
A report by the US Trade Representative says Kiev had failed to fight internet piracy1 and the use of illegal software.
Such software was even being used by government agencies, it adds. Ukraine has been warned it could lose trade benefits if it fails to act.
The report also raises grave concerns about the alleged2 misappropriation of trade secrets in China.
This is threat to both US companies and national security, it adds.
In the USTR's annual 2013 Special 301 Special Report, Ukraine is, uniquely, dubbed3 a "Priority Foreign Country" - the USTR's rarely used, bottom-tier judgement of how countries around the world are protecting US patents, copyrights and other forms of intellectual property rights (IPR).
"I regret that the government of Ukraine has earned the first new Priority Foreign Country designation in 11 years due to its severely4 deteriorating5 climate for IPR protection and market access, and call upon that government to reverse recent backsliding and swiftly resolve the problems identified today," said acting6 US Trade Representative Demetrios Marantis in a statement.
