China approves Donald Trump-branded spas, escort services, hotels and massage parlours without US Congress permissionPreliminary approval has been granted for 38 trademarks which raises further questions about conflicts of interest

BUT .... The Wa Post (which Lying Don says is fake news comes to Don's rescue):

.....

Though many readers ( myself included!) were confused initially by the AP report, especially as it comes not too long after newsrooms uncovered a non-Trump-connected international business last year called " Trump Escorts," it's just not what it sounds like.

"Chinese trademark law grants priority to whoever files an application first, so lawyers often advise clients with wide-ranging business interests to file broad, defensive trademark applications against a range of products to prevent other people jumping in — a practice known as 'trademark squatting,' common in China," the Washington Post's China bureau chief, Simon Denyer, clarified Wednesday.

In layman's terms, the Trump Organization is making sure no one in China capitalizes on the businessman's brand by trademarking a business bearing his name.


......

So who to believe? Surely not the lying failing Wa Post.
