Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein, in a phone call with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday, stressed the need to return to dialogue and the negotiating table over the future of the U.S.-led international military coalition in Iraq, the foreign ministry said in a statement.

Talks between the two countries began in January, but less than 24 hours later, three U.S. service members were killed in an attack that the U.S. said was carried out by Iran-backed militant groups in Syria and Iraq. 

The talks have paused since then.
