Damascus, July 15 (Reporter Cheng Shuapeng Jize) Syria held parliamentary elections on the 15th. Six candidates from different political parties and independent candidates competed for 250 parliamentary seats.

The election was held in areas controlled by Syrian government forces. At present, some areas in northern Syria provinces such as Idlib, Raqqa, Hasakeh, Dayr ez-Zor, and Aleppo are still controlled by Syrian opposition armed forces or extremist organizations.

The Syria Election High Judicial Council previously announced that there will be a total of 8 polling stations across Syria for this election. The voting time will be from 7:00 to 19:00 local time, which can be extended by up to 5 hours with the approval of the committee.

This is the fourth parliamentary election since Syria promulgated a new constitution in February 2012. The last election was held in July 2020, and the National Progressive Front, led by the ruling Arab Baath Socialist Party, won a majority in parliament. Public opinion here believes that the National Progressive Front is still expected to win a majority of seats in this election.

Affected by war, sanctions, epidemics, regional conflicts, etc., Syria’s economic situation and people’s livelihood conditions have continued to deteriorate in recent years. Economic and people’s livelihood issues have become the focus of attention of many candidates and voters.

According to the Syria constitution, parliament holds elections every four years.
