Tehran has been trying to organise a summit between Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Talabani and Syrian President Bashar Assad in a bid to assert its role as the top regional power broker. Talabani had planned to come to Tehran on Saturday but had to postpone his trip until Baghdad's airport, which was closed in a security clampdown, reopened on Monday. Iranian officials have said an invitation was extended to Assad, but Syria had not responded. The United States has refused to negotiate with Iran and Syria to seek their support to bring stability to Iraq, accusing both Tehran and Damascus of aiding insurgent groups in Iraq. Iran is believed to back Iraqi Shiite militias blamed for sectarian killings that have killed thousands this year. Iran has repeatedly denied the allegations. But US President George W. Bush, who is scheduled to meet with Iraq's Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki later this week in Jordan, has come under increasing pressure at home to engage Iran and Syria into a dialogue.
