Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan

The prime minister of Kyrgyzstan (Kyrgyz: Кыргыз Республикасынын премьер-министри, romanized: Qırğız Respublikasının premyer-ministri) is the head of government of Kyrgyzstan. Until 2010, the president was in a stronger position than the prime minister in Kyrgyzstan, but after the 2010 constitutional referendum, the state transitioned to a parliamentary system, placing greater power in parliament and the cabinet at the expense of the president.

The president is allowed to appoint the prime minister temporarily, and his appointment is known as the acting prime minister. The acting prime minister becomes a full prime minister by being confirmed by the Supreme Council (parliament). The prime minister then forms the cabinet.

Kubatbek Boronov was the acting prime minister from 16 June 2020, succeeding Muhammetkaliy Abulgaziyev after his resgination due to his cabinet's heavy corruption case.

Following election protests, Boronov resigned and was replaced on 6 October 2020 by opposition party founder Sadyr Zhaparov[1][2]and again by Artem Novikov on 14 November 2020 to 3 February 2021.
