| | 93087: Egypt-United States Relations |
 | | Egypt pledged an infantry division to the "6+2" group, but the talks stalled, Egypt withdrew its military contingent from the Gulf, as did Syria, and the force was never formed. |
 | | Egypt remained isolated from the Arabs, except for Sudan and Oman, because of the Israeli treaty, until Egypt opposed the June 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. |
 | | Egypt's return to the Arab League, the end of Soviet patronage for several Arab states, Egypt's role as a facilitator for the peace talks, and Egypt's traditional central position have restored Egypt as the Arab leader. |
