Federation President
The President of the United Federation of Planets (informally, the Federation President or the President of the Federation) is the elected head of state and head of government of the United Federation of Planets.
The Federation President is the chief executive officer of the Federation. He or she is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the government, setting and coordinating foreign policy, and dealing with resource distribution issues. The Federation President is also the "Commander-in-Chief" of all Star Fleet forces. The President receives foreign ambassadors and has the authority to control Star Fleet deployments and to declare martial law on Federation Member worlds. In addition, the President may preside over special courts-martial in which the Federation Council serves as the judging body.
The President is supported by the Cabinet, a special committee comprised of the heads of the executive departments of the Federation government.
The Federation President's office is located on Earth in the city of Paris, France.
