social contract opens door for all Syrians to write a unified constitution: AANES
RAQQA, Syria (North Press) – The social contract, which is being worked on currently, is a radical and real turning point for all Syrians to take it as a constitution, an official in the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES) said on Saturday.
In July 2021, a 30-member mini-committee was formed to prepare a draft for the social contract, which will be considered as a constitution to regulate the work of the Autonomous Administration on the political, economic and social aspects. After the mini-committee finished its work, the extended committee sessions began.
The social contract is a radical and real turning point and a door to be opened for all Syrians for writing a unified constitution that preserves the unity and sovereignty of the Syrian territory, Yasser Suleiman, deputy co-chair of the General Council of the AANES said.
The social contract includes the introduction and the basic principles, the rights, the freedom, and the system of the social justice. The social contract paves the way for the coming elections which will include the whole aspects of the AANES, Suleiman added .
On Saturday, the preliminary work of the expanded committee to draft the project of the AANES social contract ended, he said.
Some terms and articles such as the system of the social justice designated for women among other articles were amended in the last session.
