Middle East Accord: The Players For Peace
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Benjamin Netanyahu
He agreed the accord, but proved extremely reluctant to implement it. When he did begin, it brought down his right-wing coalition government
King Hussein
Dying from cancer, he flew to the US last October to lend moral support to the negotiators. Bill Clinton, for one, was deeply grateful for his efforts
Hosni Mubarak
The fact that the deal is to be signed in Alexandria helps confirm the Egyptian President as a player on the international stage. Had a useful backstage role
Yasser Arafat
Forced to make many concessions since 1993 Oslo accord, but has gained ground too. Israel has made him fight for every inch of the West Bank
Ehud Barak
Said on meeting Yasser Arafat, after becoming Prime Minister in May, that he wanted to revise the terms of the Wye Agreement "in the interest of both sides"
