At the end of the day it all boils down to cost-benefit analysis:

- Democratic Myanmar may not stay loyal to the US (Aung San Suu Kyi participated in China's Belt and Road Initiative soon after she was elected President, karma's indeed a bitch).
Aligning with only one side of the two coalitions (Western world and Authoritarian world) is sure way to die for third world countries.
