The only thing we should do is everything needed to cause the collapse of all the morally reprehensible regimes in the world. That means dialogue, but no economic engagement or investment and keeping containment. It also means maintaining a reasonable level of defense spending to hurt the other sides economy. The idea that western human rights values would win went out with the current state of world re:China. Their model is one that has to be stopped. Failure to do so will be catastrophic. We already have the election of Trump, the right wing governments and populism (hurting the rule of law) in several EU members as proof of the dangerous path we could fall down. We (western democracies) lack a moral compass at this point.
