Page "Camp David Accords" Paragraph 30

According to Kenneth Stein in " Heroic Diplomacy: Sadat, Kissinger, Carter, Begin, and the Quest for Arab-Israeli Peace ": " The Accords were another interim agreement or step, but negotiations that flowed from the Accords slowed for several reasons.

These included an inability to bring the Jordanians into the discussions ; the controversy over settlements ; the inconclusive nature of the subsequent autonomy talks ; domestic opposition sustained by both Begin and Sadat and, in Sadat ’ s case, ostracism and anger from the Arab world ; the emergence of a what became a cold peace between Egypt and Israel ; and changes in foreign policy priorities including discontinuity in personnel committed to sustaining the negotiating process ".
