The term "Exekutive" refers to the branch of government responsible for implementing and enforcing laws. It is one of the three main branches of government, alongside the legislative and judicial branches. The Exekutive is typically led by a head of state or government, such as a president or prime minister, who oversees various government agencies and departments. In many countries, the Exekutive also plays a crucial role in foreign policy and national defense. It is responsible for executing laws passed by the legislative branch and ensuring that public services are delivered effectively. The Exekutive's powers and responsibilities can vary significantly depending on the specific political system in place, such as in democracies or authoritarian regimes.
