US officials will take part alongside Syria, Iran and other regional states in a planned March meeting in Baghdad on Iraq's future, a senior US official said Tuesday.
State Department spokesman Sean McCormack confirmed the meeting, expected to take place next month, and would not rule out possible bilateral contacts between US envoys and their Syrian and Iranian counterparts.
"The Iraqi government has convened this meeting of its neighbors plus the permanent members of the (UN) Security Council," McCormack told reporters.
"It is an opportunity for all states attending to enunciate their positive vision for Iraq and to play a responsible role in Iraq's future, contribute to that, including Iran and Syria," he said.
