1978 CE
In fact, this is what happens.
In December 1977, Egypt and Israel had begun peace negotiations in Cairo.

President Jimmy Carter has become closely involved in the negotiations.
In an effort to break the deadlock, Carter invites Sadat and Begin to Camp David.
The negotiations are tense and almost break down several times.
On September 17, however, Carter announces that the Camp David Accords have been reached.
They consist of two parts, the Framework for Peace in the Middle East and the Framework for
the Conclusion of a Peace Treaty between Israel and Egypt.
