Syria’s information minister says the transition government is committed to media freedom following decades of censorship under the Assad dictatorship.
The acting leader Ahmed al-Sharaa has said introducing a new constitution and organizing elections could take as long as four years. He says Syria needs time to rebuild its legal system and hold a census to facilitate a legitimate vote. Some Syrians have expressed concern over the timescale.
