The great thing about Lukashenko is that he came to power democratically. He barely missed 50% in the first round in 1994, and then in the second round he got 80%. Therefore we see what democracy is about, the will of the people.
Gorbachev would have been thrown out years earlier. The rat.
BTW, to fuel some conspiracies, his wife was jewish!
So now I withdraw after pouring some fuel on fire.
Of course he could have continued on an authoritarian track a la Lukashenko, but I hardly view that as a positive. I certainly would not have wanted to live under such a regime, but had he chosen the route you propose, in all likelihood I would have been forced to do so.
