National Alliance (Egypt)

The National Alliance was an electoral alliance in Egypt that was established by former Egyptian prime minister Kamal Ganzouri; Ganzouri decided not to compete in the 2015 Egyptian parliamentary election.[1] The spokesman for the Egyptian Front criticized the alliance for its inclusion of "Mubarak-era government ministers".[2] The Egyptian Wafd Coalition declined an offer to join the alliance.[3] The Arabic Popular Movement would have joined the alliance.[4] Some of the individuals involved with the list included Mahmoud Badr and Mounir Fakhry Abdel Nour[5] (though Badr joined the For the Love of Egypt alliance).[6]
