By the puppet gov America put in place.
they're not puppets, they have they're own coalition, they're own government enties, they're own constitution which has full inclusion of everyone in that country. Now the Kurd has some Autonomy in they're area but that's it.....and fair elections...before that, authotarian reigiem (sp) that would kill anyone against them, sactioned assisination, and gassing people now.....no....

and when it comes to the WMD's question...those were sent to Syria (Assad) which he used against his country men/women/children...those were sent right before the invasion via trucks, planes....etc.....ever wondered why Assad had double the amount of stuff than he said.....js

Belarus approves hosting nuclear weapons, Russian forces permanently
Belarusians voted Monday to allow the country to host nuclear weapons and Russian forces permanently, results showed, part of a package of constitutional reforms that also extended the rule of leader Alexander Lukashenko.

The referendum was held Sunday as the ex-Soviet country's neighbour Ukraine is under attack from Russian troops and delegations from Moscow and Kyiv are expected to meet for talks on the Belarusian border.

Lukashenko, who has been in power since 1994, promised the referendum in the wake of historic protests against his disputed re-election in 2020.

By amending the constitution Lukashenko, 67, follows in the footsteps of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who in 2020 oversaw a vote on constitutional changes that made it possible for him to remain in power until 2036.

The constitutional changes also grant immunity to former leaders for crimes committed during their term in office.

Russia is a key ally of Belarus and last week Lukashenko allowed Russian troops to use Belarusian territory to invade Ukraine from the north.

Belarus inherited a number of Soviet nuclear warheads following the break-up of the USSR in 1991, according to the Nuclear Threat Initiative think tank, which it then transferred to Russia.

Lukashenko first floated possible changes after a presidential vote in August 2020 sparked unprecedented demonstrations that were met with a brutal crackdown.

He claimed a sixth term in the vote and imprisoned leading opposition figures, while his main rival Svetlana Tikhanovskaya was forced to seek refuge in neighbouring Lithuania.

The amendments would reinstate presidential term limits -- previously ditched by Lukashenko -- to two five-year terms, but they would only apply to the next elected president.

Were Lukashenko to put himself forward as a candidate for re-election in 2025, he could remain in power for an additional ten years.

Tikhanovskaya's office in Lithuania has hit out at the vote, saying that a sweeping crackdown on any dissenting voices since the 2020 election made any real discussion of the proposals impossible.

They were certainly puppets just like the Afghan ones were. But Suddamn was a puppet to until he went rogue. He did keep a very stable country and region though. Iraq is still very unstable at the moment. Some may of been but Russia probably supplied the Syrians. The weapons inspectors were not able too find any WMD before the war even started.The French and Israeli Intelligence said no WMD. We know Saddam had some as he was supplied them by America. My view is he used them all on the kurds etc.

nope...russian did supply syria, maybe in the 80's, but the bulk of what was there was Saddams....Assad had declared 2 tons, when he actually had 6tons, and he didn't use them all on the Kurds, he defintely had more, and the reasons was he got them out in the dead of night, into syria, this was when inspectors came, they would declare they didn't.........

and when it comes the afgan.....talk to the orange avenger on that one......we would pull out on this date without any pre-conditions....we were already in talks about including the Taliban in the government....till the orange avenger took office.....and that got put in Bidens lap....cause he had no time to get things ready for the pull out......and that's why it became a shit storm....

I think you will find the majority of countries have either more or less weapons than they state publicly. The accountability would depend on who is asking.

If only America would treat Trump as the terrorist he is.
