- Summary:
- Syria has entered a fragile post-war phase marked by newfound freedoms and reduced fears of extremist rule, but deep sectarian tensions - especially among the marginalized Alawite community - pose a risk of renewed insurgency. Despite diplomatic successes, President Ahmed Shara's centralized governance, economic hardship, and failure to deliver transitional justice have fueled frustration and violence, threatening long-term stability.
