[أوس] وإيران أن يمسك اجتماع أساسيّة

إيران الولايات المتّحدة الأمريكيّة واجبة أن يمسك محادثاتهم أولى ثنائيّة عامّة لعقود في بغداد في يوم الإثنين أن يتناقش الأمن مقبلة العراق.

سيمثّل كلا جوانب كنت بسفيراتهم في العراق, [رن] [كروكر] وحسّان [كزمي] [قومي].

توقّعت ال [أوس] أن يقدّم إدعاءات أنّ إيران يزوّد تكنولوجيا وأخرى دعم إلى عراقيّة ميليشيا مجموعة.

لجزءه, يقول [تهرن] هو قد كشف عدّة جاسوس شبك يركض ب ال [أوس] وحلفاءه في إيران.

On Sunday, the Iranian authorities summoned the Swiss ambassador to demand an explanation of the networks, which Iranian TV said were seeking to commit “infiltration and sabotage in western, central and south-western areas of the country”.

Switzerland represents US interests in Iran.

The White House said it did not confirm or deny allegations about intelligence matters.

“We urge Iran to play a positive role in Iraq… and stop blaming everyone else for problems they are only bringing on themselves,” White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said.

No pre-conditions

Monday’s Iranian-US meeting will be the first formal bilateral meeting since the two countries broke off relations in 1979, falling the fall of the Shah.

The US has backed away from the conditions it first set for such a meeting, says the BBC’s Paul Reynolds - which included support from Tehran for the government in Baghdad.

Mr Crocker will now press claims that Iran is supporting Shia and Sunni militias attacking US and British forces in Iran.

For its part, Iran will call for a timetable for an American withdrawal from Iraq.

But the BBC’s Frances Harrison in Tehran says that although the talks are symbolically important, there is little chance of any dramatic breakthrough.

Iran’s position on the talks has been dictated by the country’s ultimate authority - the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

He said the aim of the meeting was to remind the American occupiers of Iraq that they had a legal responsibility to bring security to the country.

Ayatollah Khamenei says the US government is colonial, bullying, arrogant and expansionist.

But, our Tehran correspondent says, Iran is more isolated than it’s been for years - now under UN as well as US sanctions because of its nuclear ambitions.

However, the nuclear issue will not be under discussion at these talks.

“Nothing but Iraq is on the agenda,” Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said 10 days ago, when announcing that this meeting would take place.
