The Reform Party of Syria (Arabic: حزب الاصلاح السوري Hizb Al-Islah Al-Suriy), or RPS is a political party committed to democracy and reform in Syria. It is based in the United States because the present Syrian government does not allow opposition political parties to form without permission. The party is made up of Syrians living in America, Western Europe, and elsewhere. The party's leader, Farid Ghadry, was born in Aleppo, Syria and comes from a well-known Syrian family of civil servants and politicians.
The RPS supported the candidacy of Nicolas Sarkozy in France's 2007 presidential election.[1]
Actually, during the Syrian uprising against the Ba'athist dictatorship the Reform Party of Syria, as a political party of the Syrian opposition in exile, is preparing a series of demonstrations and protests in cities of the United States and Western Europe.
