in that case, it sounds as if you were happy when sisi removed mohamed morsi from power in 2013. was criticised by many inside egypt and internationally. yes. we were happy. there were millions. in fact, it was not sisi who removed the muslim brotherhood. it was the egyptian people. 30 million people were in the streets against the muslim brothers. the army removed him. he was minister of defence and head of the armed forces, he gave an ultimatum to the government. the people of egypt removed the muslim brothers. we were 30 million in the streets saying that we will not have an islamic government we will not have an islamic state. and even sisi at the beginning was reluctant and we were pushing him and the army to take over. so we had to be clear. what is happening in egypt is not really portrayed well outside. i must put it to you that in the elections, after the toppling of hosni mubarak in 2011, elections were held in 2012 and the muslim brotherhood, who had refashioned themselves as the freedom and justice party won 47% of seatsin parliament and, also, other islamist parties
