Abstract

Abstract: Although the principle of separation of powers has been established in many constitutions, this principle has not established a complete separation of powers. Legislators have created numerous safeguards that preserve the three branches of government and ensure their continued existence through constitutional legitimacy. Although the current ruling systems favor parliamentary systems as representatives of the popular will, this concept does not negate the authority of the head of state and the powers he enjoys, particularly within the legislative process, including his right to veto laws before they are issued and enforced in the legislative sphere. A presidential veto serves as a mechanism or constitutional guarantee preventing the passage of laws that do not serve the supreme national interest or violate constitutional principles.
