Iranian envoy urges U.S. to show goodwill at nuclear talks

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Progress at talks between world powers and Iran on its nuclear programme later this month will depend on the United States showing "genuine honesty and goodwill", the Islamic Republic's ambassador to Russia said on Wednesday.

The two sides will meet in Kazakhstan on February 26 in another effort to forge a deal on Iran's nuclear ambitions. Iran says it wants only peaceful energy from nuclear fuel while the powers suspect it is pursuing the means to develop nuclear weapons.
