Solomont, Reasons 1.4(b)(d). 1. (C) Summary. The Ambassador called January 21, 2010, on opposition party leader Mariano Rajoy and Rajoy,s Chief of Cabinet, Jorge Moragas. They discussed Afghanistan, Iran, IPR, the Spanish economy, and Latin America. End summary. Afghanistan 2. XXXXXXXXXXXX IPR 4. (C) The Ambassador described his strong commitment to helping U.S. business compete in Spain, noting that the IPR situation is a major concern, especially for the U.S. music and film industries. He noted MPAA head Dan Glickman called him the day before to register concerns about Spain. The Ambassador said that at a recent movie premiere in Madrid, Warner Brothers' executives reported sales of new release DVDs were down 80 percent. Rajoy, whose party has in recent weeks objected to a GOS legislative proposal that would authorize shutting down websites that promote piracy, said this is a great debate in Spain and there are diverse opinions, including a vocal community of internet users. He said the PP is asking for appropriate judicial safeguards for shutting down websites and is working to find the appropriate balance between IPR protection and freedom of expression. He noted the issue is not only important economically but politically. Nevertheless, he assured the Ambassador that the PP wants to play a constructive role and promised to keep an eye on the issue. XXXXXXXXXXXX Comment 8. (C) XXXXXXXXXXXX Likewise, on IPR we took Rajoy's message to be that while the PP understands the need for Spain to do more, it is going to extract whatever political benefit it can from the debate over exactly what mechanism Spain uses to shut down pirating websites.
