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.Trader consensus reflects Ahmed al-Sharaa's strengthened position as Syria's transitional president, with an 85% implied probability he remains leader through December 31, 2026, driven by recent diplomatic breakthroughs and domestic resilience. In late March 2026, al-Sharaa secured high-profile meetings with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and King Charles III, followed by visits to European capitals in early April, signaling growing Western acceptance after U.S. sanctions relief in 2025 and White House engagement under President Trump. A February UN report detailed five foiled ISIL assassination plots against him and ministers, underscoring security challenges but also effective countermeasures amid HTS-led territorial consolidation via ceasefires. Absent major escalations like successful coups or renewed civil strife, traders anticipate continuity ahead of UN Security Council reviews on Syria's political transition.
