I really do agree with this.
He's bought himself time, I'm betting his next move will be a purge of the army to remove any disloyal officers.
From what I understand his son is in the political mix, so he'll somehow be involved in the next election.
I'm willing to bet that any protests during election time get harshly dealt with.
