Cairo – Agencies: The U.S. capital, Washington, is preparing to honor the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat by awarding him the Congressional Gold Medal, nearly 47 years after the signing of the Camp David Accords, in recognition of his role in shifting Egyptian-Israeli relations from decades of military conflict to a path of settlement and peace. Egyptian MP Afaf Sadat announced that the medal ceremony for the late president will take place in Washington on November 18, attended by members of his family, Egyptian officials, and members of Congress, including Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, and several members of Congress. The ceremony comes nearly eight years after Congress approved the award for Sadat; the legislation was passed in 2018 and signed into law by President Donald Trump on December 13 of that year. The law stipulates that Sadat be awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in recognition of his “heroic achievements and courageous contributions toward peace in the Middle East,” highlighting his role in reaching the Camp David Accords and the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty. The Congressional Gold Medal is among the highest civilian honors bestowed by the U.S. Congress, awarded to individuals or groups in recognition of exceptional achievements and outstanding contributions.
