Tehran, Iran, Aug. 13 A member of Irans hard-line parliament said that Iran would never resume its past suspension of uranium enrichment despite European requests to do so in order to revive nuclear talks, the state-owned press reported on Saturday.
We will not only refuse to suspend work at Isfahans Uranium Conversion Facility, but from now on we will rapidly commence work at Natanz and our other nuclear sites without prior arrangement with Europe and solely in the framework of international obligations under the aegis of the [IAEA”>, ultra-conservative deputy Saeed Abutaleb said.
The deputy, an ally of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said that the European trio of France, Germany, and the United Kingdom who had been leading the talks on behalf of the European Union failed to take advantage of the chances given to them.
We will not allow the dominant world order and unimportant, dominated regimes in the West to decide for us, Abutaleb said.
We are far too close to becoming a regional superpower for the West to be able to stop us, the Majlis deputy said.
