      Well, the people get what they want and consider it democratic. So it’s better than most countries at being democratic lol.

      Insulting the leader of another country and saying this can hurt diplomacy is fear mongering?

        It’s not an insult it’s reality.

        Your fear mongering is this:

        The Cold War is in full effect, and it heating up to armed conflict is seeming more likely over the next decade.
