Camp David Accords
Carter's peace breakthrough
The Camp David Accords were agreements signed in 1978 between Egypt and Israel, brokered by U.S.
President Jimmy Carter at the Camp David presidential retreat.
The accords established a framework for peace between the two nations, leading to the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty the following year—the first between Israel and an Arab state.
The Camp David Accords remain a landmark in Middle East diplomacy.
