Clinton, Bill
President of the United States from 1992-2000. Clinton was active as a broker and mediator in the various Middle East peace processes, beginning with the signing of the Declaration of Principles that launched the Oslo Process until the Camp David (II) Summit. The impact of the United States on peace in the region during this time was mixed. Certain negotiations led to peace agreements, such as those between Jordan and Israel (see Israeli-Jordanian Peace Treaty). Others fell apart, such as the negotiations between Syria and Israel, and those between the Israeli government and the Palestinian Authority at Camp David. See Golan, Galia.
