Rival Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah began a fifth round of talks Saturday aimed at forming a deal to share power, the latest session in months of fruitless negotiations.
The key stumbling block in the Egyptian-mediated talks remains the political program of a unity government that would be in power until elections are held in January 2010.
The international community says it will only deal with a Palestinian government that recognizes Israel, a concession the Hamas is unwilling to make.
