Syria's presidential election is being held today with the announcement of a three-man list of presidential candidates, namely Abdullah Salem Abdullah, Bashar Hafez al-Assad and Mahmoud Ahmad al-Mar'i. On Thursday, May 20, the first round of the Syrian presidential election was held at the Syrian embassies and consulates with the votes of Syrian citizens living abroad. The current election is somewhat different from the past and is doubly important. This is the second and final term for incumbent President Bashar al-Assad to run for president since the Syrian constitution was rewritten in 2012. This increases the importance of the elections.

Another point is that the current elections will be held with some political variables, such as the reopening of some Arab embassies in Damascus and the resumption of diplomatic and military relations with this country and the increase of Syrian military control in more areas of the country. Thus, today, for the first time in 10 years, elections will be held in areas that were previously outside the control of the Syrian government, including the northern suburbs of Latakia.

No it won't happen. As announced already, this is the last time that we will see Assad as Syrian president.
He won an election with more than 90% of the vote. I think any political announcement/promise he makes should be taken with a grain of salt.

No sir, its not just rumors but political announcement. He won't be present in the next elections.

You do understand that this could easily be mistaken as a sarcasm? :lol:

You are pinning hope on an election in a dictatorship?
