"By adopting such weighted positions, Nour is also working to gain the trust of foreign partners of Egypt. Thus, the party prepares visits to the United States and Russia to correct the widespread negative image abroad of an extremist religious party with an obscurantist doctrine. Party leaders have toured Western Europe, including France, Germany, Austria and Belgium, and plan to travel to Britain and Spain. They sought to persuade their interlocutors of their faith in democracy and the fundamental rights of citizens. But they have to work hard to convince the public, especially on their discriminatory vision against women and Copts. The party also suffers from a doctrinal rigidity imposed by the sheikhs of the Salafist Call, the parent organization behind the creation of Nour."
