Iran said on Tuesday it would continue enriching uranium. The EU's top diplomat, Javier Solana, presented Tehran on Saturday with a package of economic benefits designed to persuade it to curb its nuclear work, and said Iran should stop enrichment during negotiations on the offer. "We have repeatedly said that enrichment is our red line and we should enjoy this technology. The work will be continued," deputy foreign minister Alireza Sheikhattar told reporters, according to the state news agency IRNA. The incentive package agreed by the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany last month and delivered by Solana is a revised version of one rejected by Iran in 2006, Reuters reported. "We will give our answer as soon as possible. But we do not know exactly when it will be," the Iranian official said.
