(IRNA) - Government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham said here Monday that Iran would not accept suspension of uranium enrichment.
Elham's remarks came as he addressed domestic and foreign reporters at his weekly press conference, reports Trend.
"The issue of suspension of enrichment is not the issue in nuclear talks. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has repeatedly stressed that Iran will not accept suspension and will not surrender the nation's inalienable rights."
He said the president has spelled out clearly Iran's stance on the nuclear issue, including suspension of uranium enrichment, and its right to access peaceful nuclear technology has the support of many countries.
