Egypt faces challenge with new constitution

Egyptian parliament is back to the drawing board after being criticized for being one-sided with their first constitutional assembly.

Despite appointing a new assembly, many minorities fear a return to the corruption they faced under Hosni Mubarak.

To make matters worse, over two-thirds of the Egyptian parliament are Islamists.

After deliberating over the assembly list, both sides came to an agreement on Tuesday.

"The assembly saw many twists that hindered it for some time, but in the end it was formed to represent all Egyptian groups," said Parliamentary speaker Saad al Katatni in a joint session.

Many Liberal and Independent Parliamentary members walked out of the session, claiming the list still does not represent  minority Egyptians.

The presidential run-off between Muslim Brotherhood Mohammed Morsi and Ahmed Shafik, Mubarak's former prime minister will begin on June 16.

Governmental power will be handed to the winner on July 1.
