Politics of the Republic of the Congo takes place in a framework of a presidential republic, whereby the President is both head of state and head of government, and of a pluriform multi-party system. Executive power is exercised by the government. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of the parliament. Before the 1997 civil war, the Republic of the Congo's system of government was similar to that of the French. However, after taking power, Denis Sassou-Nguesso suspended the constitution approved in 2000. The new constitution (adopted by referendum in 2002), returns to the earlier model with a seven-year presidential term and a bicameral national parliament. On 27 March, 2015 Sassou Nguesso announced that his government would hold a referendum to change the country's 2002 constitution and allow him to run for a third consecutive term in office.〔Reuters, Congo Republic president says expects referendum over third term, BRAZZAVILLE | By Aaron Ross , Fri Mar 27, 2015 7:06pm EDT, http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/03/27/us-congo-president-idUSKBN0MN25N20150327〕 ==Executive branch== |President |Denis Sassou-Nguesso |Labour Party |25 October 1997 |} Chiefs of State and Cabinet Members of Foreign Governments () Date of Information: September 29, 2009 Pres. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Politics of the Republic of the Congo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
