Bashar al-Assad is the President of Syria, having taken office in July 2000 after succeeding his father, Hafez al-Assad. His leadership has been marked by significant political repression, economic challenges, and a brutal civil war that began in 2011, resulting in widespread humanitarian crises and massive displacement of the population. Assad's government has been accused of numerous human rights violations, including the use of chemical weapons against civilians. Despite international condemnation, he has maintained power with support from allies like Russia and Iran.
