Political, military and religious entities in Suwayda Governorate, southern Syria, establish a political council to represent the region’s perspective in the new Syria
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]

Political, military and religious entities in Suwayda Governorate, southern Syria, announced on Monday the establishment of a political council, presenting a political, security, and economic vision reflecting the region’s perspective in the new Syria.

The council aims to represent local factions, notable religious figures, intellectuals, and politicians.

Ziyad Abu Hamdan, a member of the council, stated that its formation seeks to “fill the political void, unify perspectives, and mobilize efforts in line with the evolving needs of Syrians in the upcoming phase.”

The council asserts that it is not a political party and does not adhere to any specific ideology. Instead, it is founded on key principles, primarily “linking political discourse to a comprehensive national project, engaging with all political and democratic forces, and working toward shared interests that embrace Syria’s diversity.”

The council’s formation follows consultative meetings and dialogue sessions held late in 2024, where committees were prepared for participation in the Syrian national conference in Damascus—steps that ultimately led to the council’s establishment.

Abu Hamdan welcomed the appointment of Ahmad al-Sharaa as the head of Syria’s transitional phase, describing it as “a crucial step in organizing the Syrian state.”

The council’s program also emphasizes “preserving Syria’s unity—both its people and territory—building a decentralized democratic state based on regional governance rather than sectarian divisions, and ensuring that power remains with the people through a parliament elected under a new constitution rooted in the principle of separation of powers.”
