In what way do foreign trademark applicants receive more favorable treatment than U.S. trademark applicants?

What will be an ideal response?


Many foreign countries do not require use of a mark to obtain a registration. Once they obtain that foreign registration, it can be used to secure a U.S. registration even if the mark has never been used anywhere in the world. U.S. applicants can never secure a trademark registration without showing use of the mark.
