"Along the same lines, I will proffer this thought: that if we
want to maximise our chances of the US and other countries coming
to our aid, we must offer them a moral reason to do so. If we are a
liberal democratic country, we'd have more appeal, we'd be seen to
be more worth saving than if we are seen as a dynastic fief. Why
should other countries expend blood and treasure to save an
authoritarian regime?
In short, our national security interest requires us to open up
politically."
Do you guys agree with what's written here?
