US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is in Moscow where she will hold talks with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. Mrs Clinton will try and win the country's backing for a tougher stance towards Iran's nuclear programme.

The US secretary of state has warned the world will not "wait indefinitely" for proof that Iran is not making nuclear weapons. Tehran, which recently revealed a second uranium plant, insists its programme is peaceful in purpose.

Mrs Clinton is also expected to hold talks for over two hours with her Russian counterpart, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
