Subhi Bey Barakat al-Khalidi or Suphi Bereket (Arabic: صبحي بك بركات الخالدي; Turkish: Suphi Bereket; 1889–1939) was a Turkish[3] politician from Antakya.[4] During the French Mandate of Syria, he was the president of the Syrian Federation from 29[1] June 1922 (the day following its creation) to 1 January 1925;[5][6] and of the State of Syria from 1 January 1925 to 21 December 1925.[4] Also, between 1938 and 1939, he served as the Antakya deputy of the Republic of Hatay[7] and was elected to the Internal Affairs Committee.[8]

Part of the reason the French supported his candidacy as president of the Syrian Federation was because as neither a native of Damascus nor a very strong Arabic speaker (Turkish was his mother tongue), he did not seem to pose a nationalist threat to French rule.[9]

Initially, he was a partner of Ibrahim Hanano in his revolt. He played a major role in merging the States of Aleppo and Damascus into one state,[citation needed] and he quit the presidency of Syria in 1925 in protest to the French position regarding the fate of the Alawite and Druze States,[citation needed] which France refused to add to Syria because it feared that might endanger the independence of the newly created Lebanon.
