The Syrian Communist Party is an anti-revisionist Marxist–Leninist communist party in Syria. The party emerged from a split in the Syrian Communist Party in 1986, as formed by the anti-Perestroika faction led by Khalid Bakdash. Khalid Bakdash died in 1995 and was succeeded as secretary of his party faction by his widow, Wisal Farha Bakdash. At the time of the 2000 Damascus Spring, the party was able to publish a newspaper called Sawt al-Shaab ("Voice of the People"). Currently, the party's secretary general is Ammar Bakdash, who succeeded his mother in the party's leadership. Until 29 March 2023, Mohammad Fayez al-Barasha was the party's only cabinet minister.
