German foreign minister Guido Westerwelle said on Saturday Iran had so far failed to dispel Western scepticism that it was prepared to make meaningful concessions over its nuclear programme.                                            "Our hand is still reaching out towards them. But so far it's reaching out into nothingness," he said. "And I've seen nothing since yesterday that makes me want to change that view."                                            He was speaking after Iran's foreign minister told the annual Munich Security Conference on Friday he was confident of a deal soon with world powers on exchanging some of Tehran's low-enriched uranium for higher-grade fuel it could use in a reactor producing medical isotopes.
