About article:
The choice of Anwar as-Sādāt as President of Egypt was confirmed by plebiscite on 15 October 1970. His era marked a radical shift in the underlying aims of Egypt’s internal and external policies. In order to understand the nature of the goals, means and style of Sadat’s policy, with its consequences for Soviet-Egyptian relations, it is necessary to focus on his perception of international and regional politics, including, for example, the moves of the superpowers towards détente, the military balance between Israel and the Arab countries; and competition within the Arab world. Anwar as-Sādāt had his own methods of manipulating the constraints on Egypt and using his capabilities in developing foreign policy at the local, regional and global levels.
