The Second Jamil al-Ulshi government was the twenty-seventh government in the history of modern Syria and the twelfth administration of the First Syrian Republic. Formed on 8 January 1943, it was the third and final government to serve under President Taj al-Din al-Hasani.
During the tenure of this government, President al-Hasani died in office, resulting in Jamil al-Ulshi assuming the position of acting president in accordance with the Syrian Constitution. Despite these constitutional provisions, the French High Commissioner exercised his exceptional legislative powers and dismissed the government on 25 March 1943. The dismissal bypassed the normal constitutional process and was intended to facilitate the formation of a neutral caretaker administration tasked with supervising forthcoming parliamentary elections. The government was consequently the last cabinet to serve under Taj al-Din al-Hasani before the political transition that preceded the 1943 elections.
