Historical Context

The Camp David Accords in 1978, negotiated by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, and U.S. President Jimmy Carter, led to the historic 1979 Egypt-Israel peace treaty. This agreement marked the first recognition of Israel by an Arab state and established a framework for peace, though it faced criticism and skepticism within the region, particularly from Palestinians.
