Read and translate the text: The Government of Uzbekistan 
 Uzbekistan
is a sovereign Republic, the President of Uzbekistan is both head of state and head 
of government. Executive power is exercised by the government. Legislative power is vested in 
both the government and the two chambers of parliament, the Legislative Chamber and Senate.  
The president, directly elected to a five-year term, is the head of state and is granted supreme 
executive power by the constitution. As commander in chief of the armed forces, the president 
also may declare a state of emergency or of war. The president is empowered to appoint the 
prime minister and full cabinet of ministers and the judges of the three national courts, subject to 
the approval of the Oily Millis, and to appoint all members of lower courts. The president also 
has the power to dissolve the parliament.
Deputies to the unicameral Oily Majlis, the highest legislative body, are elected to five-year 
terms. The body may be dismissed by the president with the concurrence of the Constitutional 
Court; because that court is subject to presidential appointment, the dismissal clause weights the 
balance of power heavily toward the executive branch. The Oily Majlis enacts legislation, which 
may be initiated by the president, within the parliament, by the high courts, by the procurator 
general (highest law enforcement official in the country), or by the government of the 
Autonomous Province of Karakalpakstan. Besides legislation, international treaties, presidential 
decrees, and states of emergency also must be ratified by the Oly Majlis.
Besides legislation, international treaties, presidential decrees, and states of emergency also must 
be ratitied by the Oliy Majlis. 
The 150 deputies to the Legislative Chamber of the Oliy Majlis, the highest legislative body, are 
elected to five-year terms. 
The 100-member Senate includes 16 directly nominated by the President.
The national judiciary includes the Supreme Court, the Constitutional Court, and the High 
Economic Court. Lower court systems exist at the regional, district, and town levels. Judges at 
all levels are appointed by the president and approved by the Oly Majlis and independent of the 
other branches of government.
