Belarus’ authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko has been sworn in for a seventh term, and he mocked those who derided him as “Europe’s last dictator” by saying his country has more democracy “than those who cast themselves as its models.”
his political opponents have denounced the tightly orchestrated Jan. 26 election as a farce. The Belarus Central Election Commission declared he won with nearly 87% of the vote after a campaign in which four token challengers on the ballot all praised his rule.
“Elections” coming to what used to be a democracy near you. Realize what you’re voting for when you vote right wing authoritarian, aka Nazism.
That said, Lukashenko is a legit contender for a stabilizing leader of the Russian federation once Putin dies or accidentally falls out of a window.
