yes i agree
I think it depends on the what the priorities are. Some countries support free trade and keen competition and have the agreements and laws (e.g. competition laws) in place to back that up. Other countries are focused on development, and, even if export-oriented, don't necessarily conclude a lot of trade agreements. So they are free to give an advantage to certain suppliers. They (and the end user) may pay more, but believe it's worth it to promote capacity in some area. But some companies and authorities may engage in this behaviour even when their laws do not actually permit it.
