Syria’s electoral commission on Monday announced the official results of the country’s first parliamentary elections since the fall of Bashar Assad.
Nawar Najmeh, a spokesman of the Higher Committee for People's Assembly Elections, told a press conference in Damascus that the results for two-thirds of the seats in the People's Assembly, or parliament, are final and not subject to appeal.
President Ahmad al-Sharaa will appoint the remaining third of the seats, he said, adding: "This process is unrelated to the electoral bodies."
Najmeh said: "Every elected MP represents all Syrians regardless of affiliation."
He stressed that the new parliament is expected to be "critical and revolutionary, supporting and monitoring government performance."
