Iraq Neighbors to Talk Border Security, Minus Iraq

<snip>DAMASCUS (Reuters) - Iraq (news - web sites)'s neighbors discuss postwar regional security on Saturday amid mounting U.S. accusations that militants slipping across their borders are behind a wave of attacks in the country.

But a spat over whether Iraq itself would be allowed to attend the Damascus meeting of foreign ministers from seven Middle East states threatened to overshadow the talks even before they began.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshiyar Zebari said he would not attend the talks because he was not sent a proper invitation and that the U.S.-appointed Iraqi Governing Council would not accept any decisions taken.

Syria extended Zebari a last-minute invitation after three Arab states threatened to withdraw, but said the seven ministers would decide in the first session whether he would be allowed to participate.

.......:crazy:
