The minister, Hoshiyar Zebari, said it is in Iraq's interest that there not be any confrontation with its neighbors.
Zebari said Iraq would be affected by such developments while it faces the task of rebuilding the country.
He made the comments to the London-based "Asharq al-Awsat" newspaper.
U.S. President George W. Bush, currently in Europe where he is pressing trans-Atlantic allies to step up pressure on Iran and Syria, has said the idea he was preparing to strike Iran over its nuclear program was "ridiculous," but added that all options were open.
Bush has also pressed Syria to withdraw its troops from Lebanon after the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri.
