Listen "Syria marks one year without Assad"
Episode Synopsis
Syrians marked the first anniversary of the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad and his iron-fisted rule this week with jubilant celebrations in major cities, as the divided nation struggles to find stability and recover after years of war. The new leader, President Ahmed al-Sharaa, told a large crowd of supporters that his government had "laid out a clear vision for a new Syria as a state that looks towards a promising future", calling it a historic break from a "dark chapter". KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Dr Carmit Valensi , the head of the Syria program at the INSS, the Institute for National Security Studies. (Photo:AP)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
