1970 coup led by Hafez al-Assad

The 1970 Syrian coup d'etat, also called the Corrective Revolution or the Corrective Movement, was a bloodless military coup d'état led by General Hafez al-Assad on 13 November 1970 in Syria. Assad promised to sustain and improve the "nationalist socialist line" of the state and the Ba'ath Party. The Ba'ath party adopted an ideological revision, absolving itself of Salah Jadid's doctrine of exporting revolutions.
