TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - Iran ended talks with the United States over how to restore order in Iraq after concluding the negotiations were "going nowhere," Iran's foreign minister said Wednesday in a rare acknowledgment of official talks between Tehran and Washington.

Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi said no progress was made during the talks and that Washington's reliance on military force was fueling violence in Iraq.

"Previously, we had dialogue" about Iraq, Kharrazi told reporters. "Currently it has stopped because we felt we were going nowhere. The Americans give promises but don't keep their promises. Currently, they are taking a wrong path."

In Washington, State Department spokesman Richard Boucher declined to say whether the United States asked Iran to help calm the situation in Iraq.
