VIENNA (Reuters) - The U.N. nuclear watchdog signalled its determination on Monday to get to the bottom of suspicions that Iran may have worked on designing an atomic bomb, a day after Tehran agreed to start addressing the sensitive issue.

Chief U.N. nuclear inspector Tero Varjoranta said his team made good progress during February 8-9 talks in Tehran but that much work remained to clarify concerns about Iran's nuclear programme in an investigation that Western diplomats say the Islamic state has long stonewalled.
