Some 300 journalists will cover the next round of talks between Iran and P5+1 on Iran's nuclear program which will be held on Feb. 26 in Almaty, the Kazakh Central Communication Service for the President reported on Monday.

"About 300 media representatives have been accredited to cover the next round of talks on Iran's nuclear program in Almaty," the Central Communication Service said.

Some 200 of them are foreign journalists and 100 are Kazakh journalists.
Tehran and the P5+1 had as well held three rounds of talks earlier; one in Geneva in December 2010 and two in Istanbul in January 2011 and in April 2012.
The West, led by the United States, has imposed sanctions against Iran, accusing Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear energy program.

Iran has repeatedly dismissed the Western allegations, arguing that as a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and member of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), it has every right to pursue nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.
