The Camp David Accords, officially titled the “Framework for Peace in the Middle East", was a series of agreements between Israel and Egypt signed on September 17, 1978, at the U.S. presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland.

One important issue about the agreement was the official recognition of the nation of Israel by an Arab country (Egypt), for the first time.
