For a constitutional amendment to pass, each branch of the government must agree to the amendment. Amendments are proposed in the National Assembly, which must pass an amendment with a 2/3rds majority. The amendment must then be approved by the Senate and Constitutional Court. The President can then formally place the amendment on the ballot at the next election, where at least 50% of voters must support it. The President can veto an amendment by refusing to place it on the ballot. | For a constitutional amendment to pass, each branch of the government must agree to the amendment.
