The constitutional and legal status of the head of government in republics of the mixed type is marked by a special legal status. The main tasks of the head of government are the organization and management of the highest/supreme body of state executive power, the implementation of state domestic and foreign policy and political responsibility for it. Thus, the efficiency of the government directly depends on the implementation of constitutional duties of the head of government. The objective of the article is to determine the constitutional and legal status of the head of state in European republics of mixed type. Scientific works that are devoted to the processes of formation and development of the constitutional and legal status of the head of government have been studied. The methodology of this article is based on comparative and legal analysis techniques and includes system-structural method, method of generalization, method of analysis and synthesis, etc. A comparative analysis of the constitutional and legal status of the head of government in different European countries with a mixed form of government, which gave grounds to note the general and special features that indicate a certain constitutional development of these countries has been held.
