* U.S. moves closer to clinching nuclear energy deal with India
The U.S. and India are near the signing of a deal for nuclear fuel reprocessing, which is one of the remaining requirements to complete a civilian nuclear pact between the countries, an Indian official said. The construction of reprocessing sites under International Atomic Energy Agency rules is a vital part of implementing the agreement struck last year with then-President George W. Bush. The deal permits India to access civilian nuclear power despite declining to sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Google/Agence France-Presse
