"The power behind the throne" = quyền lực đằng sau ngai vàng -> cụm từ này nghĩa là người hoặc nhóm người có quyền kiểm soát thực sự hoặc có ảnh hưởng lớn, nhưng không chịu trách nhiệm chính thức hoặc công khai.
Ví dụ
Peter Pellegrini may be the incumbent prime minister (thủ tướng đương chức) but it is his populist-left Smer-Social Democracy (Smer-SD) party colleague Robert Fico who is the power behind the throne.
The widow of Albania's former communist dictator Enver Hoxha, considered the power behind the throne and herself personally implicated in executions and deportations during his regime, died on Wednesday aged 99, her family said.
He added: "It's right that the prime minister is questioned by the committee, but also the person that's responsible - the power behind the throne - Dominic Cummings, who is having such an impact on government which has seen not just the removal of ministers but special advisers losing their job as he continues to play games in Number 10."
