The Call of Egypt (Arabic: نداء مصر|Nidaa Masr) is an electoral alliance in Egypt that competed in the 2015 Egyptian parliamentary election. The coalition has accused the Nour Party of cooperating with NDP-era tycoon Ahmed Ezz in the run up to the 2015 Egyptian parliamentary election, though the Nour Party has denied the claim.[1] The Revolutionary Guards Party, after initially joining the alliance in February 2015,[4] decided to run for the election on its own.[5] The coalition is seen as being supportive of current president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.[6]
