Why were the camp david accords important?

Egypt and Israel signed peace and leaders began negotiations for peace between Israel and Palestine

Explanation:

They are known as the Camp David agreements to which they were signed by Egyptian President Anwar el-Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin on September 17, 1978 after twelve days of secret negotiations with the mediation of the President of the United States, Jimmy Carter, and through which Egypt and Israel signed peace in the territorial conflicts between both countries.

After the presidential elections in the United States in 1976, Jimmy Carter had initiated direct contacts between the leaders of Egypt, Syria, Jordan and Israel, together with Palestinian representatives, to promote a peace process that would put an end, at least, to the border clashes between Israel and its Arab neighbors, to later enter into the background of the Palestinian problem that it was intended to solve.

Carter and Cyrus Vance, Secretary of State at that time, resumed the initiative of the Geneva meetings of 1973 based on the need for Israel to withdraw from the occupied territories in the successive wars since independence. The change in the direction of Israeli policy after the elections of May of 1978 of Isaac Rabin to Menachem Begin did not suppose, in principle, a problem in the exploratory process initiated by the American diplomacy.

Israel's starting point was to deny the Palestinian presence in any conversation and accept a possible withdrawal from the Sinai Peninsula. For its part, Egypt did not want US intervention in the process and preferred bilateral Israeli talks with each of the Arab countries.
