In a capitalist society, politics is all about buying/renting other people. Don't think US/EU diplomats don't buy local politicians elsewhere.
Of course if the commercial negotiation fails, there's always "intelligence" agencies and military to help overthrow that evil government that does not want to sell out. Contrary to our western powers and Russia, China is not doing that just yet.
Can't wait for a true democracy without middlemen selling our resources/interests to other middlemen for private profits. The world would be a much better place imo.
