Ramallah  - European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana discussed the peace process in Ramallah Friday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad.

Solana arrived in Ramallah coming from Israel, where he met Foreign Minister Tsibi Livni.

In Ramallah, Abbas told Solana that he is working to reach a final peace agreement on all the core issues. He said he would never accept a partial agreement, or postpone any of the core issues or a declaration of principle, chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat told reporters after the meeting.

"Either an agreement on everything, and particularly on Jerusalem, or no agreement at all," Abbas told Solana according to Erekat.

Solana said the EU will continue to work with the parties to push forward peace solution before the end of this year.

Abbas will meet US President George W Bush in the White House on September 25. The quartet, which includes the US, the EU, Russia and the United Nations, will hold a meeting on the Middle East peace process on the next day, said Erekat.

He said Abbas may take part in the quartet meeting as well.

Solana earlier held a separate meeting with Fayyad, who thanked the EU for its financial support for the Palestinian budget. (dpa)
