NGO person: So, what do you think is going to happen now? A recommendation to convene a diplomatic conference?

WIPO Secretary person: Well, there are two possibilities, two possible disasters. There's a diplomatic conference and it's a failure. Or 2) the treaty is so narrow and it's a useless and not signed by member states. Disasters.

NGO: What about the third possibility? It's a bad treaty and it is bad for the public? Another possible disaster?

WIPO Secretary person: Huh?
