US Secretary of State John Kerry has said he is "encouraged" by new Iraqi PM Haidar al-Abadi's plans for political and military reform.
The two men met as Mr Kerry started a Middle East tour to build support for action against Islamic State (IS).
Mr Abadi formed a unity government less than 48 hours ago to meet US calls for inclusivity and fight the lightning advance by IS rebels in northern Iraq.
Meanwhile at least nine people died in a series of car bombs in east Baghdad.
The explosions happened minutes apart in the Shia neighbourhood of New Baghdad. At least 25 others were injured.
US President Barack Obama is due to outline his plans to combat IS on Wednesday evening.
He said on Tuesday that he had authority to widen military action against IS without the approval of Congress, but added he would still ask politicians to endorse the arming of Syrian opposition forces.
IS militants have taken over large parts of Syria and Iraq in recent months and have declared a "caliphate".
The US has already conducted dozens of air strikes on IS targets in the past month, in an effort to protect ethnic and religious minorities threatened by IS.
IS militants described the beheadings of two US journalists as a retaliation against the strikes.
