Syria Enters Transitional Phase under New Leadership
Syria has entered a new political chapter with Ahmed al-Sharaa being appointed as president for a transitional period. The country's constitution has been suspended as part of this shift, according to official reports.
Al-Sharaa has been granted authority to establish a temporary legislative council that will oversee governance until a new constitution is formulated. The announcement came from a spokesperson for the military operations sector of Syria’s newly formed de facto government.
As part of the restructuring, all armed factions in the country have been dissolved and will be integrated into state institutions. Additionally, the previous regime's military, security agencies, and the long-dominant political party have been officially disbanded.
These changes were declared following a meeting in Damascus involving various armed groups that had participated in the recent offensive leading to the ousting of former President Bashar al-Assad. Since then, Al-Sharaa and his group have assumed control, forming an interim government primarily composed of officials from previously opposition-controlled areas.
Al-Sharaa has committed to a political transition that includes a national conference, the formation of an inclusive government, and eventual elections—potentially taking up to four years. He has also proposed the creation of a unified national army and security apparatus, though challenges remain in uniting the various opposition factions under a single command.
The transition process has brought increased clarity about Syria’s political future. Analysts suggest that these developments could pave the way for the lifting of international sanctions, which would be crucial for the country’s economic recovery. Experts have likened Syria’s political shift to historical transitions in Africa and Latin America, highlighting the significance of transferring power from military factions to a structured political framework.
