Timeline
Anisa (or Aniseh) Makhlouf (أَنِيسَةُ مَخْلُوفٍ, 5 November 1930 – 6 February 2016) was the matriarch of the Syrian Al-Assad family, which has ruled the country since 1971.
She married Hafez al-Assad, an officer of the Syrian Arab Air Force, in 1957.
Her marriage to Hafez al-Assad elevated the status and wealth of the Makhlouf family.
Her relatives were awarded lucrative contracts within the country's banking, oil and telecommunication sectors.
The wife of the late Syrian President Hafez al-Assad, Makhlouf held the position of First Lady of Syria from 1971 until 2000.
One whose company he enjoyed more than Anisa was the more outgoing and affable Lamia Tlass, wife of Mustafa Tlass, who was also considering divorce due to his repeated infidelity.Following the death of Bassel al-Assad in 1994, Makhlouf favoured Maher al-Assad, her youngest son and a Syrian general, as a possible successor for her husband.
Makhlouf was born in Latakia, Syria, to the Makhloufs, an influential family from Bustan al-Basha, Latakia Governorate.
She was the daughter of Ahmed Makhlouf and Saada Sulayman al-Assad, Hafez al-Assad's aunt.
Instead, Bashar al-Assad returned from London, joined the military, and succeeded his father as President of Syria in 2000.
The Economist described Anisa Makhlouf as "a formidable figure" within the al-Assad family and the Ba'athist government.
A highly influential member of the government, she was one of the few people with whom Bashar al-Assad regularly consulted during the Syrian Civil War.
She is believed to have advocated for a heavy, military crackdown on Syrian protesters and rebels during the ongoing Civil War.
One nephew, Rami Makhlouf, is believed to be the wealthiest man in Syria, with a net worth of US$5 billion, as of 2012.
According to the Tlass family, Hafez was never particularly fond of the staid and withdrawn Anisa, and had seriously considered divorcing her, or having a second wife used to entertain world leaders.
In 2012, Makhlouf, as well as other members of the Al-Assad family, were sanctioned by the European Union amid the country's civil war and attacks on protesters by the Syrian government.
The EU sanctions included a travel ban and the freezing of her assets.
Prior to the travel ban, she had reportedly made frequent trips to Germany for medical treatments for an undisclosed illness.
Anisa Makhlouf died in Damascus on 6 February 2016 from undisclosed causes.
