Larijani in Munich
February 5, 2007
"We hope that we can have good talks and negotiations," Larijani was quoted as saying by the ISNA news agency as he confirmed his attendance.
When asked if he would have any talks with US officials on the sidelines of the event, Larijani said: "No."
The US delegation attending the conference will be led by the new US Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
Often dubbed the "Davos of the security world," the 43rd Munich Conference on Security Policy will be held from Feb. 9 to 11.
Top-ranking politicians including Russian President Vladimir Putin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana will attend.
Iran nuclear crisis on the agenda
The conference is set to highlight transatlantic security issues at a time of mounting Western frustration over Iran's nuclear program.
A defiant Iran has been pressing ahead with its atomic drive despite Western demands for it to freeze sensitive activities.
Larijani, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said talks on Iran's nuclear case would be "useful.
"We have always stressed that we want to resolve the issue by negotiations," he said. "But at the same time, I cannot have any judgment now."
