00:00Amal Alamuddin, the wife of the famous American star George Clooney, has sparked controversy and raised questions after the disclosure of a possible role she played in work related to drafting the Egyptian constitution during the period of Muslim Brotherhood rule.
00:20The surprise was revealed by George Clooney himself during his appearance on the Drew Barrymore show.
00:26I called her up and said, you want to come see a visit over at Abbey Road? And she's like, yeah, I'm at a meeting at the Muslim Brotherhood right now and I'll come right over because she was in the middle of trying to redo a constitution for, you know, for the Egyptians.
00:42Linking Alamuddin's name to the so-called Muslim Brotherhood constitution sparked widespread reactions.
00:50This constitution, which was approved in December 2012, was met with protests by millions of Egyptians at the time, while the Brotherhood mobilized their supporters to pass it.
01:03Later, its implementation was suspended in 2013 after the overthrow of the Brotherhood's rule in June of the same year, without any disclosure at the time of the participation of foreign experts in drafting this constitution.
01:18It is noted that, until now, no official comment has been issued by Alamuddin or her office regarding her husband's statements.
