The Syrian Communist Party (Arabic: الحزب الشيوعي السوري, romanizedAl-Hizb Al-Shuyū'ī Al-Sūrī) is an anti-revisionist Marxist–Leninist communist party in Syria.[3][4][5] The party emerged from a split in the Syrian Communist Party in 1986, as formed by the anti-Perestroika faction led by Khalid Bakdash. Khalid Bakdash died in 1995 and was succeeded as secretary of his party faction by his widow, Wisal Farha Bakdash. At the time of the 2000 Damascus Spring, the party was able to publish a newspaper called Sawt al-Shaab ("Voice of the People").

Currently, the party's secretary general is Ammar Bakdash, who succeeded his mother in the party's leadership.

Mohammad Fayez al-Barasha is the party's only cabinet minister.[6]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
