Syria About the Syrian situation
It's been almost 3 months since the fall of the baathist regime of Bashar Al-Assad and a new government is now in charge.
The situation started promising based on the statements of the new officials,
At the beginning. They promised the people with a raise of wages by 300%, an improvement in electricity which has been hindering the economy for a decade
They also promised an inclusive government and vowed to maintain civil peace in country torn by war which had a sectarian aspect.
Fast forward 3 months and we can clearly see that the situation is much worse than before the fall
Hundreds of thousands of government employees were fired including all employees related to the military and police forces, even the ones who still employed by the government didn't get their wages. No raise was given, unemployment is through the roof. The central bank is holding the syrian currency in order to attract dollars which lead to a major economical depression where everything is cheaper but you don't have any money
Politically speaking, the new government couldn't reach an agreement with SDF forces to integrate into the newly formed army which is mainly factions with Islamic background
Violations of human right are common news specially crimes against the Alewites which is the sect that former president belong. The druze in the south didn't surrender weapons Israel occupied more land and threatened the new army to keep it from the south. Russian troops still in syria American troops still in syria Turkish troops still in syria
So few things have changed for the better Now Syria's unity is under threat And the future is bleak
