The results of an Israeli opinion poll published on Friday showed that 75% of Israelis believe that negotiations with Syria would end with signing a peace agreement.

Israel Radio said on Friday that the results showed that 70% of the Israelis considered that the negotiations would end by reaching a peace agreement while 27% have the opposite opinion

The poll found that many Israelis who believe in peace oppose the return of the whole of the Golan to Syria, which is Syria's condition to signing the peace agreement with Israel.

The poll covered a stratum of 500 Israelis.
