'''Emomali
He became widely known in 1992 after the abolition of the post of president in the country, when at the dawn of the [[Tajikistani Civil War|civil war (1992–1997)]] he became Chairman of the Supreme Soviet (Parliament) of Tajikistan as a compromise candidate between communists and [[Neocommunists|neo-communists]] on the one hand and liberal-democratic, nationalist and [[Islamist]] forces (the [[United Tajik Opposition]]) on the other.

Five times (in the elections of [[1994 Tajik presidential election|1994]], [[1999 Tajik presidential election|1999]], [[2006 Tajik presidential election|2006]], [[2013 Tajik presidential election|2013]] and [[2020 Tajik presidential election|2020]]), Rahmon won undemocratic presidential elections; in addition, he extended and reformed his powers based on the results of the national constitutional referendums of [[1999 Tajik constitutional referendum|1999]] and [[2003 Tajik constitutional referendum|2003]]. Since 25 December 2015, Emomali Rahmon has held the lifetime title of ''Peshvoyi Millat'' ({{lang-tg|Пешвои Миллат|script=Latn|italic=no}}), which means “Leader of the Nation”, in full — “Founder of peace and national Unity — Leader of the Nation”. Following the results of the last national constitutional referendum in [[2016 Tajik constitutional referendum|2016]], amendments were adopted that lifted the restrictions on the number of re-elections to the post of President of Tajikistan and lowered the age limit for those running for the post of president from 35 to 30 years.
Rahmon heads an [[Authoritarianism|authoritarian]] regime in Tajikistan with elements of a [[cult of personality]]. Political opponents are repressed, violations of human rights and freedoms are severe, elections are not free and fair, and [[corruption]] and [[nepotism]] are rampant.<ref>{{Cite web|last=|first=|author-link=|title=Tajikistan's eternal ruler Emomali Rakhmon {{!}} DW {{!}} 12.10.2020|url=https://www.dw.com/en/tajikistans-eternal-ruler-emomali-rakhmon/a-55234401|url-status=live|access-date=2021-07-05|website=DW.COM|publisher=[[Deutsche Welle]]|language=en-GB|archive-date=6 July 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210706140240/https://www.dw.com/en/tajikistans-eternal-ruler-emomali-rakhmon/a-55234401}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|date=15 January 2019|title=World Report 2019: Rights Trends in Tajikistan|language=en|work=[[Human Rights Watch]]|url=https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2019/country-chapters/tajikistan|access-date=13 May 2020|archive-date=24 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190224074509/https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2019/country-chapters/tajikistan|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=The world's enduring dictators: Emomali Rahmon, Tajikistan|url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-worlds-enduring-dictators-emomali-rahmon-tajikistan/|url-status=live|access-date=2021-07-05|website=www.cbsnews.com|date=19 June 2011 |publisher=[[CBS News]]|language=en-US|archive-date=9 July 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210709190542/https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-worlds-enduring-dictators-emomali-rahmon-tajikistan/}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Tajikistan: Nations in Transit 2020 Country Report|url=https://freedomhouse.org/country/tajikistan/nations-transit/2020|url-status=live|access-date=2021-07-05|website=[[Freedom House]]|language=en|archive-date=11 July 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210711013352/https://freedomhouse.org/country/tajikistan/nations-transit/2020}}</ref> Various important government positions are occupied by his family members, such as his

That same month, the Supreme Soviet met in [[Khujand]] for its 16th session and declared Tajikistan a parliamentary republic. Rahmon was then elected by the members of the Supreme Soviet as its chairman—as the Parliamentary republican system adopted by Tajikistan did not provide for a ceremonial president, he was also Head of State—and the head of government.<ref name="Emomali Rahmon"/> Former Interior Minister [[Yaqub Salimov]] later recalled that Rahmon's appointment was made because he was "nondescript", in which other field commanders thought that he could be cast aside "when he had served his purpose."<ref>{{Cite

Following constitutional changes, he was reelected on 6 November 1999 to a seven-year term, officially taking 97% of the vote. On 22 June 2003, he won a referendum that would allow him to run for two more consecutive seven-year terms after his term expired in 2006. The opposition alleges that this amendment was hidden in a way that verged upon [[electoral fraud]].
