Vice Premier Shimon Peres said on Sunday that there was no chance of reaching a "conclusive agreement" with the Palestinians unless Israel partitioned Jerusalem and ceded the West Bank city of Hebron, Haaretz reported.

Peres, speaking to Israel Radio, also said the Gush Etzion settlement area would not be returned to the Palestinians under any future peace accord.
 

The Labor Party chairman said he believes "there is no chance of reaching a conclusive agreement with the Palestinian Authority without giving back Hebron and dividing Jerusalem."
