There are copyright reciprocity agreements between specific sets of nations, but there is no universal copyright law.

Yes, that's why I referred to 'laws' (plural).

Have you come across any copyright law (in any country) where copyright does not apply just because the item has not been released in that country?

Well, there are 193 member nations in the UN, and 188 of them are members of the World Intellectual Property Organization, so I guess that means there are 5 countries that do not have any laws against violating intellectual property rights from other countries. Which ones? I don't know. I'm too lazy to compare the lists.
