The National Salvation Front[1] (also known as the National Front for Salvation of the Revolution or the National Rescue Front, Arabic: جبهة الإنقاذ الوطني)[2] is an alliance of Egyptian political parties, formed to defeat Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi's 22 November 2012 constitutional declaration.[3] The National Front for Salvation of the Revolution has more than 35 groups involved overall.[4] Observers are concerned that the NSF will not be able to become a coherent political force because the different parties agree on opposing Morsi, but their views on other subjects diverge.[5]
The front issued three demands to Morsi during the 2012 Egyptian protests. The demands were: that the constitutional declaration be rescinded, that the referendum be called off, and that a new constituent assembly be formed.[6]
Morsi announced that one decree, granting him unlimited power to make laws without judicial review, had been annulled as of 8 December 2012, but the constitutional referendum went ahead as planned for 15 and 22 December.[7]
After the ouster of Morsi by the Egyptian military, a number of politicians from the National Salvation Front were moved into power, including three women.[citation needed]
The coalition held a meeting on 2 February 2014 to determine its future;[8] it decided to continue its work.[9] One commentator named Bassem Aly has stated that the alliance "collapsed" following the ouster of Morsi.[10]
