Interfax: Vedomosti backs news agencies' statement on copyright

"The business daily Vedomosti said it applauds a statement on intellectual property protection that was issued by Russia's three leading news agencies - Interfax, ITAR-TASS, and RIA Novosti - on Friday."

""All civilized market players understand that the intellectual property problem needs to be sorted out. I am very pleased with a statement in which these leading news agencies said that not only do they see this problem as a matter of concern, but they are also trying to join forces to find a solution to it as soon as possible," Vedomosti publisher Mikhail Dubik told Interfax on Saturday."
