Iran Signals no Compromise on Enrichment

Iran's top atomic official on Tuesday indicated the nation would not back away from its highly contested program to produce higher-enriched uranium, Reuters reported.
"The Islamic Republic of Iran will not suspend 20 percent uranium enrichment because of the demands of others," the Iranian Students' News Agency quoted Atomic Energy Organization Fereidoun Abbasi as saying."The Islamic Republic of Iran will produce 20 percent enriched uranium to meet its needs and for however long it is required."http://www.nti.org/gsn/article/iran-signals-no-compromise-enrichment/
