📍 Summary:
In a landmark decision, Syria’s transitional president Ahmad al-Sharaa has officially declared Nowruz a paid national holiday across the country, elevating the ancient celebration from a cultural observance to a state-recognized national event. The presidential decree describes Nowruz as a symbol of spring, renewal, social solidarity, and brotherhood among all Syrian citizens.

According to the order, all public institutions and government bodies are now required to observe Nowruz as an official holiday. The transitional government framed the move as part of a broader effort to strengthen national unity and promote respect for Syria’s cultural and social diversity after years of conflict and division.

The decree places particular emphasis on Syria’s Kurdish citizens, recognizing them as an essential and authentic component of the Syrian nation. It affirms that Kurdish cultural and linguistic identity is an inseparable part of Syria’s unified yet diverse national identity.

In a significant policy shift, the government also recognized the Kurdish language as a national language, allowing its teaching in public and private schools in regions with a substantial Kurdish population. The decree further instructs state media and educational institutions to uphold inclusive national discourse and strictly prohibits discrimination or incitement based on ethnicity or language, warning that violations will be subject to legal action.
