Syrian Communist Party

The Syrian Communist Party (Arabic language: ????? ??????? ??????, transliterated al-hizb ash-shuy?'? as-s?r?) has been the name of a political party in Syria since 1944. Since a split in 1986, the name has been used by two competing parties. The party is part of the world communist movement, and historically had a pro-Soviet orientation. Since 1972, it has been a member of the National Progressive Front, which provides a legal framework for activity by parties supporting the Syrian government's socialist and Arab nationalist orientation and accepting the leadership of the Ba'th Party.
