Iran warns relations with Iraq in danger By NASSER KARIMI, Associated Press Writer
Sun Apr 8, 3:20 PM ET
TEHRAN, Iran - Iran's foreign minister warned Sunday that cooperation with Iraq could deteriorate if five Iranian diplomats detained by U.S. troops in Iraq are not set free.
Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said Iran is seriously pursuing the fate of the detained diplomats and urged Iraq to do the same, according to Iran's state broadcasting company's Web site.
"If their efforts do not yield results, it will undermine Iran's aid to Iraq," the report quoted Mottaki as saying.
The United States detained five Iranians in the northern Iraqi city of Irbil in January and refused to release them or allow Iranian officials a chance to visit the men.
