Premier of the Sino-Soviet Union

The Premier of the Sino-Soviet Union (Russian: Премьер-министр), Mandarin: 中苏总理) is the official head of state of the Sino-Soviet Union and is the highest office in the government and country. The premier is officially chosen by a direct popular vote, but in recent years, the premier has instead been selected by the National Assembly regardless of the outcome of the popular vote.

According to the Constitution of the Sino-Soviet Union, the premier shares executive power along with the General Secretary of the Communist Party, who is the head of government. Such laws were created under the leadership of Mikhail Gorbachev to preserve the political rights of all Soviet citizens. The premier is restricted by the General Secretary who will use the communist party's agenda as a means of limiting the powers of the office.

On May 7th, 2012, Vladimir Putin was elected by the National Assembly and by the general public to become the new premier and has continued to serve as its current leader despite opposition from protestors and international outcry over accusations of abuse within his office.

Powers and duties
The office of the premier has been defined as the "official head of state and public leader of the Sino-Soviet Union" according to the nation's constitution. The office of the premier is officially limited to diplomatic and military affairs and must collaborate with the National Assembly and the legislative bodies when seeking to impose laws and other policies.
