Anwar Sadat was an influential Egyptian politician and military officer, serving as the third president of Egypt. He played a crucial role in the Egyptian Revolution of 1952 and was Vice President under President Gamal Abdel Nasser before becoming president in 1970. Sadat departed significantly from Nasserism, introducing a multi-party system and initiating the Infitah economic policy. He led Egypt through the Yom Kippur War of 1973, which ultimately led to the Camp David Accords and the Egypt–Israel peace treaty. For his efforts, he was honored with the Nobel Peace Prize.
