DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) - Women in this Moslem nation will have the right to vote and run for Parliament in forthcoming elections, Health Minister Farhan Al Jandali said Friday.

 

He told newsmen the balloting, probably will take place in December. Elections were promised by Premier Mamoun Kuzbari after his regime seized power last month and pulled Syria out of the United Arab Republic.
