History

Historical Context

The Camp David Accords, signed on September 17, 1978, by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, marked a significant shift in Middle Eastern diplomacy. Facilitated by U.S. President Jimmy Carter, the accords led to Egypt's recognition of Israel and a peace treaty in 1979.
