Iran has no intention of stopping uranium enrichment

Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations Amir-Saeid Iravani said the Islamic republic’s nuclear enrichment “will never stop” because it is permitted for “peaceful energy” purposes under the treaty on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons.

“The enrichment is our right, an inalienable right, and we want to implement this right. I think that enrichment will never stop,” Iravani told CBS News.

But the envoy said Tehran was “ready for the negotiation, but after this aggression, it is not proper condition for a new round of the negotiation, and there is no request for negotiation and meeting with the president”.
