This is a question asking for an opinion and, accordingly, you should take this an opinion as opposed to a definitive answer on the subject.

The United States has two main goals when it comes to trade. The first is to promote its business and the facilitation of larger trade. As a result, engaging with any country, as long as that country does not intend harm to the United States is favorable, regardless of their own domestic issues. However, the US has a secondary duty to promote the ideas of democracy and human rights in its foreign policy. As a result, trade can be used as weapon or gift to promote this other objective. The promotion of human rights is so important for long-term security and worldwide prosperity, that the United States should tie trade or AID to a requirement to improve human rights in those countries where it is a substantive issue.
