Syria’s Sharaa appoints lawmakers, paving way for new parliament to convene

Syrian authorities announced the names of 70 lawmakers on Wednesday ​appointed to a transitional parliament by President Ahmed Al-Sharaa, paving the way to convene the body next week more than eight months after the process of forming it began. The 210-member chamber, two-thirds of which was chosen by regional electoral colleges last year, will wield limited power under a presidential ruling system established under Sharaa since he ousted Bashar Assad in 2024.
