The meeting aims to assess the progress of a plan adopted last year to help the shattered country rebuild after five years of war.

The United States has been pressing Sunni Arab governments to shore up the government of Nuri al-Maliki by forgiving debts and opening diplomatic missions.

Here are some details on Iraqi debt:

* Over the past three years, about $66.5 billion of Iraq's overall $120.2 billion foreign debt has been forgiven. With the participation of all members, the Paris Club cancelled $42.3 billion, including Russia's $12 billion.

The Paris Club is an informal group of official creditors whose role is to help debtor nations manage their debts.

* A number of non-Paris Club members have cancelled a total of $8.2 billion, on Paris Club terms. A total of $16 billion has been cancelled by commercial creditors, also on Paris Club terms.

* Other Paris Club members agreed to cancel 80 percent of Iraq's debt.

* ESTIMATED DEBT REMAINING:

$56.6 billion to $79.9 billion including:
-- Paris Club: $7.6 billion.

-- Gulf Cooperation Council, which comprises Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates: $32.4 billion to $55.4 billion.

-- Non-Paris Club with signed bilateral agreements:
$646 million.

-- Other non-Paris Club: $15.9 billion to $16.2 billion.

* DEBT WRITTEN OFF BY SOME COUNTRIES:

United States: $4.1 billion
Japan: $6.8 billion
Germany: $5.6 billion
France: $5.1 billion
Russia: $12 billion
Italy $2.4 billion
Bulgaria $3.1 billion
Serbia, Slovenia and Bosnia: $2.2 billion
Romania: $2 billion

* SAUDI ARABIA/KUWAIT:

-- Last year, Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal said his country would write off 80 percent of the more than $15 billion it is owed by Iraq.

-- Last September, the chairman of the Paris Club, Xavier Musca, said Saudi Arabia and Kuwait still had not offered to Iraq a debt treatment comparable to the one provided by the Paris Club in 2004.

-- Kuwait is owed about $15 billion.
