News & Media In Memorium: Former President Jimmy Carter

Dec 30, 2024

In Memoriam: Former President Jimmy Carter

It is with great sadness that the MFO notes the passing of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, an indefatigable force for peace and a global humanitarian. There are few who have so solidly concentrated their own individual efforts on making this world a better place for all.

President Carter spent his life fighting for peace, including brokering the 1978 peace talks between Egypt and Israel which led to the Camp David Accords and the signing of the Treaty of Peace between Egypt and Israel in 1979. The 1979 Treaty of Peace and its Protocol established the MFO and enabled the peacekeeping work that we have done successfully for over 40 years. The Treaty also serves as the cornerstone for all subsequent peace accords in the Middle East.

 

On behalf of the whole MFO family, we share our condolences with his children and grandchildren. The world is a better place as a result of his many efforts.
