Mustafa Khalil accompanied Egyptian President Anwar Sadat on his historic first visit to Jerusalem, in November 1977 to meet with the Prime Minister of Israel Menachem Begin.[1] Khalil was also the secretary general of the Arab Socialist Union at the time.[1] The visit by Sadat and Khalil paved the way for negotiations by United States President Jimmy Carter, which ultimately led to the Camp David Accords.[1] Former United Nations Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali, who served as the deputy prime minister for foreign affairs under Khalil and also travelled with Khalil and Sadat to Israel in 1977, has talked about the important role which Khalil played in the peace negotiations, "Khalil contributed in serving the country for over 50 years and took part in making peace and building the basis of development...We continued negotiations together that ended in the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty that launched the peace process in the region."[1]
Khalil served as the Prime Minister of Egypt from 1978 until 1980.[1] In his last years, Khalil served as the deputy chairman of the National Democratic Party, which was the governing party of Egypt.[1] He stepped down from that position in November 2007.[1] He was born in the Al Qalyubiyah Governorate. Khalil attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where he received a master's degree and doctorate in 1948 and 1951.[2]
Mustafa Khalil died on June 7, 2008, at the age of 88 at a hospital in Cairo, Egypt.[1] According to MENA, Egypt's state-run news agency, Khalil was being treated at the hospital of an unspecified illness at the time.[1] He was survived by his wife, Nehal, his son Egyptian businessman and former parliamentarian Hisham Mustafa Khalil and daughter Zeinab Khalil.[1] His state funeral on June 9, 2008, was a big affair attended by Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and dignitaries from Egypt and abroad.[1]
