In a meeting held on January 29, the new jihadist government of Syria under Islamist Ahmed al-Sharaa (formerly Al-Jolani) decided to ban the activities of parties that participated in the so-called National Progressive Front, including the Communist Party of Syria.
The activity of Syrian communists goes back to the 1920s with the foundation of the Syrian-Lebanese Communist Party in 1924. Despite its internal splits and divisions, the Communist Party had always been a progressive and democratic force, struggling for the rights of the Syrian people.
