Salah al-Din al-Bitar (Arabic: صلاح الدين البيطار, romanized: Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn al-Bīṭār; 1 January 1912 – 21 July 1980) was a Syrian politician who co-founded the Arab Baʿth Party with Michel Aflaq in the early 1940s.

Bitar later served as prime minister in several early Ba'athist governments in Syria but became alienated from the party as it grew more radical. Read more on Wikipedia
