TheExecutive Council of Andorra (Catalan:Consell Executiu d'Andorra) is the chiefexecutive body of thePrincipality of Andorra.

Under the 1993constitution, theco-princes continue as heads of state, but the head of government retains executive power. The two co-princes serve coequally with limited powers that do not include veto over government acts. Both are represented in Andorra by adelegate, although since 1993, bothFrance andSpain have their own embassies. As co-princes of Andorra, thepresident of France and thebishop of Urgell maintain supreme authority in approval of all international treaties withFrance andSpain, as well as all those that deal with internal security, defense, Andorran territory, diplomatic representation, and judicial or penal cooperation. Although the institution of the co-princes is viewed by some as an anachronism, the majority sees them as both a link with Andorra's traditions and a way to balance the power of Andorra's two much larger neighbors.

The way the two co-princes are chosen makes Andorra one of the most politically distinct nations on Earth. One co-prince is the current sittingpresident of France, currentlyEmmanuel Macron (it has historically been any head of state of France, including kings and emperors of the French). The other is the currentRoman Catholicbishop of theCatalan city ofLa Seu d'Urgell, currentlyJosep-Lluís Serrano Pentinat. As neither prince lives in Andorra, their role is almost entirely ceremonial.

After the2023 Andorran parliamentary election, the new government of the prime minister was appointed on 17 May 2023.^[1]
