interim government
Temporary ruling body
An interim government is a temporary administration that holds power during a transition period—after a regime collapses, before elections can be held, or while a permanent government is being formed.
The interim government promised elections within six months.
Such governments typically have limited authority and are expected to maintain basic functions rather than implement major policy changes.
