This market will resolve to “Yes” if Ahmed al-Sharaa ceases to be President of Syria for any period of time between market creation and the specified date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. An announcement of Ahmed al-Sharaa's resignation/removal before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal goes into effect. If the specified individual is detained, effectively removed from the specified position, or otherwise permanently prevented from fulfilling the duties of the specified position within this market’s timeframe, it will qualify for a “Yes” resolution. The resolution source for this market will be official information from Ahmed al-Sharaa and the government of Syria; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa maintains firm control as transitional leader following Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham's overthrow of Bashar al-Assad in late 2024, with trader consensus at 85.5% implying he will not be ousted by year-end 2026 reflecting his consolidation of power amid ongoing challenges. Recent developments include a February 2026 UN report detailing five foiled ISIL assassination plots against al-Sharaa and ministers, bolstering perceptions of effective security measures, alongside diplomatic engagements such as a January ceasefire with Syrian Democratic Forces and meetings with regional leaders. His March announcements on government evaluations and a near-tripled 2026 budget prioritizing reconstruction signal institutional stability, while international sanction relief and anti-ISIL cooperation reduce external pressures, though sporadic violence and factional unification efforts persist as potential risks.
