Abstract

The Federal Antimonopoly Service made a proposal to extend the compulsory licensing to pharmaceuticals. The author of the article proves that the legislative initiatives of our Antitrust Service can have strong side effects on our pharma industry. She examines the interrelationship between the issuance of compulsory licenses for essential medicines and the influx of FDI, incentives of «Big pharma» to register new drugs in countries with a low level of patent protection.
