India and China are simply doing what the US and European countries have done for so long: trump rhetoric about democracy and human rights with policies that serve their strategic and energy security interests. US relations with Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are two examples, and America’s Chevron and France’s Total, two of the world’s oil giants, continue to do a brisk business in Myanmar, thanks to loopholes in the sanctions.
印度和中国现在所做的不过是美国和欧洲国家做了很长时间的事情：大肆鼓吹民主和人权，同时却实施旨在保护它们的战略和能源安全利益的政策。美国与巴基斯坦和沙特阿拉伯的关系就是两个很好的例子，而美国的雪佛龙公司和法国的道达尔公司两大世界石油巨头得益于制裁中的一些漏洞，在缅甸的业务依然进行很红火。
