If the President of the Republic dies, resigns or is unable to act, as noted by the Constitutional Council, the President of the Senate temporarily exercises the President’s functions. If the presidency is vacant or the incapacity is permanent, a new election takes place 20 to 35 days later. The Prime Minister does not replace the President.
