I would say yes, this dictatorship is capable of that. Not to mention that you have to publicly kneel to said dictator for peace to happen. If he wasn't intent on humiliating you, wouldn't we be signing a treaty somewhere rather than that?
If you kneel, you're no longer a threat to power, and anyone sensible would let you off with a prison sentence at most. Does this dictatorship have a history of going back on deals? Again, are they more organized or a bunch of thugs with guns? Is the dictator an idiot or smart?
The Deal that this dictatorship is offering (if you read the OP), is that if you kneel, you and your band become slave soldiers for the dictatorship's foreign wars.
