What was the political system in Croatia during Mesić's presidency?

  • Parliamentary

  • Presidential

  • Semi-presidential

  • Dictatorial

Answer

Semi-presidential, Croatia's political system during Mesić's presidency, combines elements of both presidential and parliamentary systems. The president, elected by popular vote, holds significant powers, including the ability to appoint and dismiss the prime minister and other government officials, as well as veto legislation. However, the president's authority is balanced by the parliament, which can pass laws over the president's veto and hold the government accountable.
