There is no such thing as principle in international diplomacy. It is always about benefits. Maybe a seat for China in MTCR in exchange of India's NSG membership can be worked out?
Yes, that's a possibility, but it is the same 'carrot & stick' approach, only difference is that you are talking about carrot and I am talking about stick. So far we have given China a lot without bargaining or getting anything in return, we have supported their annexation of Tibet (by betraying Tibetans rather), we have supported them in UN, and now we are giving them billions of dollars of business even in non-essential goods, and all the while they are arming Pakistan in return. We are supposed to acknowledge One China, and they will issue stapled visas to some of our people. So why not close the flow of Chinese imports a bit, and use that as a bargaining chip, especially when they are wondering what to do with the excess capacity in their manufacturing units?
