1 jan 2006 ano - 2006: Bell advises Asma Al-Assad

Descrição:

Bell Pottinger worked for Asma Al-Assad in 2006 to set up a First Lady’s Office.

The Independent reported that Bell Pottinger spent six months setting up the press office before their business together ended.

In interviews, Lord Bell has repeatedly stressed that he never worked for the Syrian regime but for “Mrs Assad”: “All I did for her was set up a First Lady's office. She wanted to have a communications office rather like Laura Bush has or had at that time, and she wanted to have a communications director."
