Did you mean "did *not* belong" in line 2?  (I think you must have.)  At any
rate, many authors have had their works published in the USSR with no
royalties.  Of course, when they are paid royalties, it's in rubles which
they can't exchange for anything else, so they have to go there to spend them.
Everyone loses but the Soviet government.
