There is something almost colonialist about the way the arguments on the Indian side are never given (although their motives are discussed in depth). Last time I checked, both China and India argued that global emissions limits should be done on a per-capita basis, and that therefore China and India should not be obligated to reduce their emissions. While there are arguments to be made against this claim (e.g. should China and India be rewarded for their large populations?), it would be nice to see these arguments being addressed directly, rather than assuming that non-Westerners are only ever driven by base politics.
