Iran’s President vows not to suspend enrichment

Iran Focus Tehran, Iran, Mar. 02 – Iran’s hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared that his government will not suspend uranium enrichment activities, despite the looming prospect of United Nations Security Council referral, government-owned newspapers reported on Thursday.

“Iran will not suspend peaceful nuclear activities”, the official state news agency quoted Ahmadinejad as telling a large gathering of Iranian businessmen in Kuala Lumpur late Wednesday.

“Certain countries and powers of the world want to control all the world’s precious resources and prevent others from wreaking their benefit”.

He said that Iran would not retreat through “bullying and pressure”.

Ahmadinejad is in Kuala Lumpur for three days of talks with Malaysian leaders.
