{{Politics of Freice}}
The '''president of Freice''' (Freician: Erasgari oe Faio; Kaimo Freician: Faioa Redinte), officially the '''President of the Country of Freice''' (Freician: Erasgari oe tela Landua oe Faio; Kaimo Freician: Lhana Faioa Redinte) is the regional head of state and head of government of [[Freice]].
 
Freice, a ''Country'' of [[Riamo]] pursues a system comparable to presidentialism, whereby the president is head of the executive branch and independent from the legislative branch. As head of government, they are the highest executive official, with extensive political responsibilities including chairing the Government Council, signing bills into law, administering Freice's external affairs policy, and representing Freice internationally.<ref name=": President">[https://i.imgur.com/LJrd3HN.jpg/ "Government Council > President"]. ''Government Council of Freice''. Retrieved 14 April 2022.</ref> The president is an ex officio member of the Kivunna (the legislature), deviating from pure presidentialism, although they do not have a vote and cannot be removed by a vote of no confidence.<ref name=": President">[https://i.imgur.com/LJrd3HN.jpg/ "Government Council > President"]. ''Government Council of Freice''. Retrieved 14 April 2022.</ref>
 
The office was established with the passage of the [[Constitution of Freice]] in April 2022, which separated the positions of head of government and presiding officer of the legislature.<ref name=": 123Const">[https://i.imgur.com/LJrd3HN.jpg/ "Meeting approves constitution draft"].
