Moḥamed Anwar al Sadat was an Egyptian politician and military officer who served as president and prime minister of Egypt since the death of Gamal Abdel Nasser in September 1970, and was re-elected in unopposed elections in 1974 and 1978, this being the last election presidential before the reintroduction of the multiparty system in 1979 (also during his term) remained in office until his assassination on October 6, 1981. He was succeeded by Hosni Mubarak, who would remain in power until his overthrow in 2011.

On November 11, 1977, Israeli Prime Minister Menáchem Beguín formally invited Al Sadat to visit Jerusalem. At nine o'clock on the afternoon of November 19, 1977, Al Sadat arrived in Israel, becoming the first Arab leader to visit that country. Al Sadat was received at an official ceremony, although both countries remained formally at war. On November 20, 1977, President Al Sadat addressed the plenary of the Knesset, acquiring the commitment to recognize the State of Israel under certain conditions. In 1978, he had a new meeting with the Israeli prime minister to prepare, through US President Jimmy Carter, peace with Israel in the Camp David Peace Accords, signed jointly with Menájem Beguín.
