"The interim president, Ahmad al-Sharaa, proclaimed that, "we are witnessing the birth of a new phase in our national journey, and the formation of a new government today is a declaration of our shared will to build a new state.""
"HTS retained pivotal ministries, including foreign affairs, defense, justice and the interior. But around half of the new ministers are not affiliated with the group, offering a mix of community representation and professional qualifications."
The interim Syrian government has announced a new cabinet comprised of 23 ministers to serve for the next five years. Interim president Ahmad al-Sharaa emphasized this formation as the start of a new phase in Syria's national journey.
