Israel and Egypt can reach a partial agreement, but there are no good prospects for an Israel-Jordanian pact, Defense Minister Moshe Dayan told a conference of Jewish student leaders this weekend.

Dayan told the students that he opposes total Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank, even in exchange for peace with Jordan.
