    Not the one I am asking about. Perhaps I should say recently...did those things.

    Kind of sounds like you might of forgot to use the word "almost". If so  it was America from 2016 to 2020. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Wrong. A question may be answered with a question.

    But you finally told us in response to Livvie’s great answer. No need for you to play games.

    I asked a question.   And waited for the correct answer.  Not a matter of games....I can choose how I wish to reply on my question....there are no rules on how anyone handles their posts other than the respect/keep it clean ToS of course.

    Exactly, which is why an answer may be a question, as mine was.

    My great answer wasn’t my first guess.  I had to do some online research and guesswork to come up with the answer my2cents wanted.

    My first guess was actually Myanmar, but while it has lots of problems, it didn’t fit the list for this question.

    I can’t find a country that has recently done all four on that list so my best guess is Ukraine, which is currently under martial law for obvious reasons.

    Yes Urkaine has done all those things recently.

    Most or all of those things are against Russia. Russia invaded Ukraine and Russia is killing Ukrainian people. So I don't think taking political steps against Russia is so bad. Cheers!

    Not having elections is NOT against Russia. 
    Banning political parties is not what a supposed democracy does.
    Forcing military service is because of Russia. 
    Attacking religious clerks is bad.

    Then of course you have the Ukrainian Nazis in their army.

    Well Ukraine is pretty busy now to have elections - maybe after they defeat Russia elections will be back on. We also don't know what the pro Russia political parties and pro Russia religious groups are saying or doing. Bet if Donald J Trump supported the Ukraine  and the things the Ukrainian president does to win the war you would too. Cheers!

    I do not know what Trumps position is on Urkaine currently.  I do not change my positions based on Trumps positions.  
    We should not be supporting tyrannical actions.  NATO caused this....we did you Russia what Russia did to us in the Cuban Missile Crisis.  And then they started talking about letting Urkaine join....knowing Russia would not stand for it.

    We do know that Trump wants to pull the US out of NATO, which is a bad idea and one of the reasons he lost the election.

    No, he has not said he wanted to remove the US from NATO, he said all of the NATO members should live up to their agreements and do their part to support NATO.  As most of the members are not and are relying on US to cover them.  
    Personally, I think NATO is going to cause another war. And am completely fine with US withdrawal from it.

    Trump's position on Ukraine is based on spite and delusion. The spite started when Zelensky didn't agree to find dirt on Hunter Biden. And the delusion started when Trump claimed he could end the war in 24 hours. The only way that could happen is if Ukraine agreed to give Russia a large hunk of their country. They won't do that and even if they did Russia  wouldn't be satisfied they would soon want all of Ukraine and it's surrounding countries. Russia has to be stopped in Ukraine and the spirt of the Ukraine people, their president and help from other countries will get it done. Cheers!

    The world wants to stop Russia in Urkaine because Ukraine is their favorite place to launder money. 

    The dirt on Biden in Ukraine is on video, in the bank statements and on Hunter's laptop. Biden crime family was paid Millions to get rid of the investigation into Hunter's boss' company Birisma.   Joe is on video bragging about getting the procecutor fired.  And their is an email from the owner of Burisma explaining to Hunter exactly what he expected for his millions.   Zelensky was/is not needed for that.    And just for the record it was Trump who gave Ukraine weapons to start with.  Only problem is Biden is so weak of a leader, Putin is not worried about following US instruction.  Trump told Putin "I will bomb Moscow if you invade Ukraine."
