What is the oslo agreement?

The Oslo Agreement refers to a series of accords between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) aimed at achieving a peace process and establishing a framework for Palestinian self-governance. The first significant agreement, known as the Oslo I Accord, was signed in 1993 and marked the first time both parties officially recognized each other. It set the groundwork for further negotiations and led to the creation of the Palestinian Authority. Subsequent agreements, such as the Oslo II Accord in 1995, expanded on these principles but ultimately faced challenges and setbacks in implementation.
