CAROL LIN, CNN ANCHOR: No agreement yet in the peace talks in West Virginia. A week of talks between Israel and Syria appear to be wrapping up today. There's another working day on the agenda, but President Clinton probably won't be taking part. Mr. Clinton flew to West Virginia last night and joined Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Syrian Foreign Minister Farouk al-Sharaa for dinner and meetings. CNN State Department correspondent Andrea Koppel is in West Virginia where the talks are still being held.</s>ANDREA KOPPEL, CNN STATE DEPARTMENT CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, Carol. A week after talks began, it appears this round is going to wind down later today with little apparent progress on key concerns. But that is no surprise to any of the officials involved in these talks, recognizing that 50 years of conflict between Israel and Syria was not going to be resolved in a week's worth of talks. After Mr. Clinton's two-and-a-half-hour dinner last night with the Israeli prime minister and the Syrian foreign minister, U.S. officials said that there was a frank and serious exchange of ideas on a seven-page working document which Mr. Clinton presented to the men on Friday. This essentially encompasses areas of agreement and disagreement, which has separated the Israelis and Syrians for so many years. It is unclear, however, as to whether or not -- when this round wraps up later today -- whether a team of experts will stay behind to work over the nitty gritty of any future peace deal, areas of -- separating the two, continue to focus on the future of an Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights, and areas of mutual security guarantees and normalization of diplomatic relations. However, U.S. officials saying that the following round would likely take place sooner rather than later. Reporting live, I'm Andrea Koppel, CNN, in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.
