Syrians Protest New Constitution Over Concerns of Centralized Power, Ethnic Exclusion

Hundreds of Syrians took to the streets in protest against the country’s newly proposed constitution, arguing that it undermines ethnic pluralism by enforcing a singular national identity and maintaining a highly centralized power structure.

Demonstrators, holding placards and chanting slogans, expressed concerns that the draft charter fails to represent Syria’s diverse ethnic and religious communities. Critics argue that the constitution consolidates power rather than promoting local governance and inclusivity.

The protests highlight growing tensions over Syria’s political future, as opposition groups and minority communities push for a more decentralized and representative system.
