lawyerSPAIN will remain on the US watchlist of countries which violate intellectual property rights.

The US praised the country’s recent advancements, including the creation of an Intellectual Property Committee this year, but warned that it must continue to improve the effectiveness of its operations.

Spain only left the ‘blacklist’ in 2012.

Intellectual property rights allow people to protect their ideas and inventions from being copied by creating patents.
