You apparently don't know much about what's going on in Iraq either. :shrug:

This is something that comes up every few years in Russian politics but they never go forward with it. But the fact that it would mean a new constitution and set of terms for Putin means it could really happen this time. It will be interesting to see.

Editing is a lost art.

Belarus's beleaguered opposition called on Belarussians to the streets this week to protest "imminent annexation" by Russia.

I assume there is supposed to be a "to take" after Belarussians.
