The relationship between Egypt and the U.S. is a worthwhile subject for understanding the complex international relations of the Middle East. Especially in the presidency of Anwar Sadat, adjustment of Egyptian foreign policy had a significant influence on the international political structure of Middle East. Egyptian diplomacy switched from pro-Soviet to pro-America. But there's no such aspect of systematical research in the academic circles. The essay tries to make a comparatively systematical research to the subject.The author firstly introduced that the Egyptian-American relations since Nasserian revolution have evoluted with a complicated process of serious tension, relaxation, normal diplomatic relations and comprehensive cooperation. There were also many opportunities to promote the relationship between Egypt and America in Nasser era. Anwar Sadat could learn a lot from Nasser's dealing with America.The reasons that attributed to the adjustment of Egyptian foreign policy in Anwar Sadat era are mainly the state interest which is the determinant factor affecting and influencing relationships between the two countries; The demand of getting away from the predicament and Egyptian national development strategy; Chauvinism and hegemonism of the Soviet Union damaged USSR-Egyptian relationship; The effect of Egypt's reconciliation with Israel; The adjustment of the American Middle East policy etc..Egypt's pro-America has produced huge influence: Causing reorganization of political strength in Middle East; Egypt's rechoosing development strategy; Resulting in fissure in Arabian world; Winning peaceful environment; Strengthening Egypt's position and function of coordinator.Sadat's pro-America foreign policy has given Egyptian lots of advantages also made Egypt sink in unprecedented challenge in the mean time. Egyptian diplomacy still needs to adjust. Egyptian-American relationship is typical between northern southern countries, also is a typical case among different countries with different civilization. Researching this subject has great practical significance.
