Ali Abdulrahman Keda (Arabic: علي كده, born 1973) is a Syrian politican and engineer serving as the third Prime Minister of the Syrian Salvation Government since 2019.
Early life
Keda was born in Harbanoush, a village in Idlib Governorate, in 1973. He obtained degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Aleppo and military engineering from a state military academy.[1]
Political career
Keda served as Deputy Minister of the Interior for Administrative Affairs and Public Relations under the administration of Fawwez Hilal formed in November 2018.[2] Following the resignation of Hilal's cabinet at the completion of its one-year term,[3] Keda was given thirty days to present a new government to the General Shura Council.[2] On November 18 2019, Keda's government was approved by the General Shura Council and he was elected prime minister, winning 65% of the vote.[3] Shortly after his appointment, he pledged to tackle a surge in the number of internally displaced persons in Idlib.[4]
On March 23 2020, Keda tasked Abdullah al-Shawi with chairing an emergency committee intended to coordinate the administration's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in Syria. However, he has been seen attending meetings without a face mask.[5]
