US-led coalition holds talks in Paris to tackle 'foreign dominated' Daesh

US-led coalition members carrying out air raids against Daesh held crunch talks in Paris Tuesday as Iraq's leader pleaded for more support against what he said was now a foreign-dominated group, the Economic Times reported on Tuesday.

Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al Abadi said the advance of Daesh represented a "failure" for the global community, upping the stakes ahead of the gathering of around 20 ministers from the coalition.

The talks were given added urgency by a suicide bomb against an Iraqi police base, which killed at least 37 and further slowed an operation to retake the city of Ramadi near Baghdad.

Iraq's plan to recapture Ramadi will dominate the meeting, according to a senior US official, with Abadi set to outline how his government intends to retake it and what coalition partners can do to help.

"This is not a business-as-usual meeting," said the senior official, speaking on condition of anonymity by teleconference.

"We're coming to discuss with... Abadi his plan for liberating Ramadi and Anbar province."

Western diplomats say the aim of the Paris meeting is to shore up support for Abadi as Iraq comes under international pressure to bring the Sunni minority into the fold.

Under a campaign plan adopted by Abadi's cabinet shortly after Ramadi's fall, the Iraqis hope to mobilize the Sunni tribes of Anbar province, deploy police units under new leadership, channel reconstruction aid quickly to recaptured areas and ensure all Shiite militias are operating under Baghdad's authority.

The US-led coalition also called for the "speedy launch" of efforts to resolve the Syrian crisis, saying this was crucial to tackle the group rampaging through Syria and Iraq.
