The recent seizure of power by the rebel coalition in Syria led to the appointment of Ahmed al-Shara as the country's president during a transitional phase. This significant political shift followed their swift takeover of Damascus, resulting in the declaration of the nullification of the Constitution and dissolution of the previous regime's institutions, including the army and legislature. This marks the beginning of an unprecedented period of transition away from over 50 years of Assad family rule, with al-Shara positioned as the de facto leader overseeing the new government's formation.
The rebel coalition that seized control of Syria last month appointed its leader, Ahmed al-Shara, as president of the country to preside over a transitional period.
A spokesman for the coalition declared that the Constitution had been nullified and the legislature and army formed under Assad were dissolved.
This marks the first official steps toward establishing a new government after the rebel coalition swept into Damascus last month.
Mr. al-Shara, who led that coalition, has since been serving as the country's de facto leader, overseeing an unprecedented transitional phase.
