The summit next week will bring together Iraq's neighbours and other regional and international powers. But Ms Rice said Iraq would be the only topic of any talks with her Iranian counterpart Manouchehr Mottaki. The US has accused Iran of helping insurgents in Iraq, a charge Iran has strongly denied. Ms Rice's comments exclude the possibility of talks on Tehran's controversial nuclear programme. Washington does not have diplomatic ties with Tehran, but envoys did meet at a conference on Iraq in March. Ms Rice said any "encounter" with Iran would be a chance to discuss Iraq's security situation, and not specific US-Iranian relations. "This is not a meeting about the United States and Iran," she told ABC's This Week programme. "This is a meeting about Iraq and about what Iraq's neighbours and interested parties can do to help stabilise the situation in Iraq." Nevertheless, if this US-Iranian encounter were to happen it would mark a significant breakthrough, the BBC's Iranian affairs analyst Pam O'Toole says. And if such talks went well, she says, they could pave the way for discussions on wider issues in the future. The US has not had diplomatic relations with Tehran since the 1979 Iranian revolution. Detainees On Sunday, Tehran finally confirmed that would attend the Sharm el-Sheikh conference on 3-4 May. Iran had been reluctant to go because it would mean engaging with the US, the BBC's Frances Harrison in Tehran says. It was also unhappy by the decision to expand the summit to include not just Iraq's neighbours but also the five permanent UN Security Council members and other Arab nations. In addition, there were also some in Iran who tried to link attendance to the fate of five Iranian detainees in US custody in Baghdad, our correspondent says. But Tehran later said the two issues were not connected. Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari welcomed the prospect of talks between Iran and the US. "I think it's important, it would be a major breakthrough and any reduction in tensions will positively impact the situation in Iraq," he said. "We don't want Iraq to be a battleground for settling scores on other agendas at our cost. Really, this has been harming us, damaging us a lot." Militants held Iran has close ties with Shias in Iraq, and has been accused by the Washington of arming and training Shia militants for sectarian conflict with Sunnis. The diplomatic moves come as US-led forces continue a security crackdown in Iraq. On Sunday night, the US carried out what it called a massive effort to disrupt the networks of al-Qaeda in the country. The US said 72 suspected militants had been detained in raids west and north of Baghdad, in the provinces of Anbar and Salahuddin.

Sunni militants are being armed with Iranian-made munitions, US military spokesman Maj Gen William Caldwell told reporters in Baghdad. These include mortar rounds and rocket-propelled grenades, he said. There was no immediate reaction from the government in mainly Shia Iran which has been accused of arming fellow Shia militants in Iraq in the past. Training claim The weapons, which were shown at the news conference, were discovered in a car in a Sunni district of Baghdad last week, the Americans said. Gen Caldwell said the Iranians were not only supplying weapons to unspecified groups fighting the coalition and Iraqi government forces but training them too. "There are groups that are receiving training in Iran with the most modern weapons and munitions that are available and then being smuggled into Iraq and being utilised by these groups against the Iraqi security force and coalition forces," he said. "That required some very skilled training to be able to use them and employ them like they were being used." Iran threat Gen Caldwell also accused the Iranians of helping Iraqi militants use roadside bombs, which have been used to devastating effect in ambushes on US and coalition forces. The devices have so far killed more than 170 US soldiers since the Iraq invasion in 2003. The BBC's Jim Muir says the Iraqi government is hoping a planned conference in Egypt next month will defuse tensions with its neighbours, and perhaps even start a reconciliation process between the Americans and Iran. But now Iran is threatening to pull out of the talks, as they are demanding the release of five Iranian officials seized by the Americans from an office in the Kurdish area of northern Iraq in January, our correspondent says. The US on Wednesday ruled out freeing the five, who it accuses of meddling in Iraqi affairs. The White House also denied Iranian state television reports it tortured a diplomat held in custody for two months. From: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6546555.stm -- US and Iran break ice over Iraq By Jim Muir BBC News, Baghdad The one-day conference of Iraq's neighbours, attended by other interested parties including the Americans and British, seems to have passed off as well as anybody expected. It was the first formal encounter between the Americans and Iranians - who have no diplomatic relations - for more than two years. US relations with Syria are almost as bad. Both countries are accused by Washington of fostering terrorism and enabling arms, fighters and money to cross their borders into Iraq - charges they deny. This ice-breaking encounter seems to have gone down well all round. Positive atmosphere The US ambassador in Baghdad, Zalmay Khalilzad, who led the US team, spoke later about the positive and businesslike atmosphere. Despite controversy over contacts with the US, Iranian and Syrian newspapers on Sunday generally welcomed the outcome of the meeting. Given the deep differences between those taking part, the potential for acrimonious wrangling was clearly there. But according to those who took part, the atmosphere was positive even when some of those differences were aired. "Issues were debated, but in a very respectful way," the conference host, Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, told the BBC. "Everybody was concerned to accentuate the positive, not to issue provocative confrontational statements." British ambassador Dominic Asquith, who headed the UK delegation, added: "It was a good meeting, with a very positive tone. "All those who were round the table were clear in their emphasis of support for the government of Iraq and for the Iraqi people in their efforts to confront terrorism and sectarian violence." From Iraq's point of view, one of the most important practical results of the meeting was agreement to set up security committees with the neighbouring states, with a brief to tackle the issue of cross-border infiltration. Iraqi officials said they would be pressing to ensure that all sides lived up to the commitments given. 'Lively exchanges' Iraq also seemed to attach much importance to opening a dialogue between the US and the UK on one side, and Iran and Syria on the other. "The other important achievement was that Iraq became a forum for some lively exchanges between the US and Iran, as well as Syria and the UK, which really created a good and positive atmosphere," Foreign Minister Zebari said. "Despite what you may hear about it being just a handshake and some formalities, it was much deeper than that, and it was all focused on Iraq." "The chemistry was good, and there were some very lively exchanges both between them, and with others." Mr Zebari said that Iraq needed its neighbours' help to secure internal stability, and in return, could offer them a forum and an issue on which they could talk to the US and the UK. While much of the interest was focused was on the situation between the US and Iran, British ambassador Dominic Asquith said Syria had also played a positive role. "The Syrian participant was particularly constructive, indeed came up at the end with some compromise language for the final statement which received full backing, indeed applause, from everybody around the table, so there was a good spirit of constructive engagement and the Americans played their full part in that." Next steps If this first encounter was positive despite the obvious limitations, what comes next? One disappointment was that the participants were not able to agree on the timing, venue and level for the follow-up meeting that all agree should take place soon. It had been hoped that there would be agreement on a conference at foreign ministerial level - including Condoleezza Rice - in April, possibly in Istanbul. The Turks have offered to host such an "expanded" meeting. But given differences over the agenda, scope and level of participation, the most likely scenario seems to be an initial meeting restricted to the foreign ministers of Iraq and its six neighbours, who would then decide whether to broaden it to include the permanent members of the UN Security Council and others.
