Government of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic

After amending the Constitution of the PMR in 2000, it was in fact a deliberative body under the President of the PMR.

In 2000 - 2011, the word “government” was not mentioned at all in the PMR Constitution; this body was called the “cabinet of ministers”. Since the PMR was an unrecognized presidential republic until 2012, the PMR President was the head of the executive branch (that is, the chairman of the government). From September 3 to November 29, 1990, there was a separate post of the chairman of the government (council of ministers), whose acting was Moroz Stanislav Ivanovich .

The Institute of Government and the post of Prime Minister of Transnistria were introduced on January 1, 2012 in accordance with the amendments made in June 2011 to the Constitution of the PMR . Until January 1, 2012, the Cabinet of Ministers of the PMR was formed by the President of the PMR to exercise his powers as the head of the executive power ^{[1] of the} republic. The ministers were directly subordinate to the head of the Transnistrian state. In accordance with the amendments, the government becomes the supreme executive body of the PMR, which includes the Chairman of the Government of the PMR, his deputies, ministers, heads of state administrations of cities and regions.
