Hi,
Your answer :
According to the text of our Constitution, the King has a series of powers. Thus he is the head of the armed forces, he has the conduct of Foreign Affairs and has the right to coin money. However, the more powers are delegated to the European Union or to the regions, the more the competences of the King are amputated. Thus the right to coin money does not make much sense since the arrival of the euro. Ministers of regional governments are not sworn in at the Royal Palace, but in their own parliament. The political powers of the sovereign are grouped together in chapter 3 of the Constitution and are explained at the same time as those of the government. In our system of constitutional monarchy, the sovereign can not undertake anything without being covered by his government. Officially, the King does nothing, and it is the ministers who negotiate. Even when, as in the past, the ministers knew nothing about the plans of the Royal Palace, it was still under their responsibility. The King's political role is essentially based on two axes: the signing of laws and the appointment of (in) formators during the formation of governments. Article 109 states that the King sanctions and promulgates laws. This skill has long been perceived as a formality, until the episode of the abortion crisis demonstrates that the King could "use" this power. The role of the King in forming governments or in political crises is not explicitly stated in the Constitution. This is more of a customary right taken from Article 196: the King registers the resignation and appoints his ministers. In a ceremonial monarchy, the King has only a protocol function. This model is also called "Scandinavian model". In Sweden, for example, the role of the King in forming governments was taken over by the Speaker of Parliament. In Luxembourg, the Grand Duke's role was also transformed at the end of 2008 into a protocol role, after Grand Duke Henri refused to sign the law decriminalizing euthanasia.
Good bye :)
