Appointment sparks controversy and media advisor resigns

Journalist and writer Wissam Kenaan has resigned from his position as the media advisor to the Syrian Artists Syndicate, just days after his appointment, due to controversy surrounding his past stances and career history. The President of the Artists Syndicate halted investigations into the accusations made against him. The syndicate chairman clarified that Kenaan was appointed after a personal interview and was given a trial work opportunity, and that the syndicate would revoke the decision if the allegations against him are proven. It is noted that the appointment decision sparked widespread criticism, with objections directed at Kenaan's support for the Syrian regime and Hezbollah, and his past positions which were seen as supportive of reservations about the Syrian revolution and refugees.
