You don't...

You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

iTunes Store: Which types of items can I buy in my country?

It is not so much Apple... But more to do with International Distribution and Copyright Laws... Not to mention the Laws of Individual Countries... Quite a complex situation as I'm sure you can appreciate...
