Reuters. Syria will retain Islamic jurisprudence as the main basis of law and will preserve freedom of opinion and expression, according to a constitutional declaration drafted by experts and signed by interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa on Thursday (March 13).
A summary of its 44 articles was read out by a legal expert from the committee appointed by Sharaa less than two weeks ago.
