From the Belarus Constitution. Lakushenko, their maximum Leader, is another despot that the Workers World Party loves 'cuz of his stand against NATO. Nevermind he disappears journalists regularly. http://www.workers.org/ww/2000/belarus1102.html

Aargh. Lukashenko is not a despot. Lukashenko is a populist demagogue and a dickhead. He is not a dictator. Belarus is probably the most democratic country in the CIS after Russia. It is also the least corrupt country in the CIS. Tell a Bealrusian Lukashenko is a dictator and they will bust a gut laughing.
