    That sounds good and all on paper, but it’s really only as binding as the people that come in after him are willing to let it be. I can imagine a law being passed later on just repealing this law and he’s right back to square one, assuming he doesn’t just hold onto power until he dies and/or Russia doesn’t annex Belarus.

        Head of state of a theoretically sovereign nation, appears to genuinely aspire to… Being a colonel. One step above what his rank used to be.
