Today, the Syrian government media said, "Bashar al-Assad issued Decree No. 221 of 2020 to form the new government headed by Engineer Hussein Arnous."

The Minister of Defense, Foreign Affairs and Endowments, Local Administration, Media and other ministries all retained their seats in the new government, which consists of 31 ministers.

The country suffers from a stifling economic crisis and the lack of government solutions, due to the high level of corruption in state institutions.
