The way China and Turkey are arming Pakistan. Don't they fall under the enemy of state category? Is it wise to promote or purchase goods from these countries, even if they are cheaper and so-called "imported"?
Even though China was an ardent enemy of America and the greed for profit and cheap manufacturing costs of American corporates created this monster which they are trying to dismantle now... won't this affect India as well?
We hardly buy anything from Turkey except for furniture or handguns... But still, thats what came to my mind.
points to ponder...

Re: China and Turkey
They aren't the only countries who have been willing to take Pakistan's money.
Whether India is affected by recent events will depend on how tariffs are negotiated, and this will take quite some time to settle, if ever.
There's stuff that I don't buy because of where its origin. This is a personal decision, just as there would be many opinions here on whether purchasing or not purchasing something due to its effect on India. What someone may view as negative, another might not view so seriously.
i doubt whether our collective purchases or boycotts are likely to affect global trade, but still, I won't buy anything from someone I percieve as spitting in my eye, whether or not they even care about my actions.

Re: China and Turkey
True, Timmy, strong men carry strong opinions. Absolutely right, I also do not like buying things from China unless there is no other option.
