September 4, 1975

President Gerald R. Ford and his foreign affairs advisors negotiate the Sinai Interim Agreement (Sinai II) which states that the conflicts between the countries “shall not be resolved by military force but by peaceful means.” Thus, the agreement strengthens Israel’s and Egypt’s commitment to abiding by U.N. Resolution 338 and bolsters diplomatic relations between Egypt, Israel and the United States.
