Iran and the United States will meet in Baghdad on Monday to discuss ways to ease Iraq's security problems, Tehran's ambassador to Baghdad said.

The meeting -- to discuss a committee Iran and the U.S. agreed to set up last month to deal with security issues -- would be the third between the two countries in recent months over Iraq. The first round in May broke a 27-year diplomatic freeze following the 1979 Islamic Revolution and takeover of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran.

''The two sides will exchange views on Monday concerning the details of a trilateral security committee,'' state-run television quoted Ambassador Hasan Kazemi Qomi as saying Saturday.
