Opting out of RCEP is good for avoiding the clutches of the dragon. But you need a pact with one of the top 2 economic powers.

不签署RCEP，就能避免被“龙”控制。为此，印度应该与世界前两大经济强国之一达成协议。

Free trade deal with the US is pointless unless there's free movement of people. This is because India's only profitable export is labor.

除非允许人员自由流动，否则与美国的自由贸易协定毫无意义。为什么这么说？因为印度唯一有利可图的出口是劳动力。
