Description: Economic usefulness of the patent system is not the same for different states. States exporters technologies receive the benefits of improved patent systems around the world, as income that gives them exclusive possession, license fees cover the cost of patenting. On the other hand, technologically backward state pay increasingly high prices for patented products and seldom or never even receive income from patenting. It is similar asymmetry causes significant contradictions in the development of international patent law. Provisions of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the EU on legal protection of intellectual property include a significant expansion of status holders, strengthening the regime of innovative facilities (additional legal remedies and protection mechanisms, extension of legal protection, more stringent public control over observance of legislation) leaving the government flexibility in the use of some tools. It should summarize the main consequences of taking these commitments by Ukraine, in terms of national interests, divide them on negative and positive: (1) negative: (a) implementation of the legal protection of critical and scientific publications that have become public domain, impede access to them from domestic consumers, as well as sharing them, the same is true of audiovisual works, which in Ukraine almost created; (b) reform of the national system of geographical indications require adjustment of marketing strategies Ukrainian companies, advertising companies, additional investments; (c) guarantees high protection of intellectual property and product quality lead to substantial price increases; (d) in the case of international cooperation with other countries in the new format, the object of which relate to the subject of the Association Agreement with the EU, Ukraine is obliged to carry out appropriate consultations with the EU; (e) harmonization of significant legislation on the protection of intellectual property rights with the relevant EU regulations require significant budgetary costs; (2) positive: (a) activation of still inert domestic intellectual property market, the prospects for a competitive offer on it from domestic sources; (b) increase competition, strengthen the protection of the interests of holders stimulate innovative activity of local researchers (with the exception of computer programming, where the property rights of the author limited interests of the employer) and innovative enterprises; (c) increase the security of investments in innovation, which mainly relate to foreign capital, but in the long term, subject to effective state regulation of the economy, can stimulate the modernization of the country; (d) wealthy consumers have sufficient assurance that they are high quality and original products. Thus, the Association Agreement between the EU and Ukraine is of complex economic and legal problems, primarily the state and national business associations for which it is necessary to develop a program to support national producers, with a view to effective integration into the European market (using the supplied economic opportunities). Even with securing high standards of intellectual property rights in Ukraine, for example, in a land market, this is not enough for the development of national scientific and technological capabilities, providing social sovereign-economic needs. However, optimism is recognized in the text of the Agreement formalities existing cooperation and to intensify its plans. Same main conclusion is that, taking into account the current socio-economic situation in Ukraine, the EU proposed terms of the contract should be assessed positively in general.
