    Ahmadinejad: new sanctions against Iran will not stop
    country from developing its nuclear program
    22.09.2007 13:44 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ New sanctions against Iran will not stop the country
    from developing its nuclear program, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
    said Saturday.

    Ahmadinejad comments come as discussions continue by the United
    States, Russia, China and the European troika - France, Germany and
    the UK - over a third round of UN Security Council's sanctions against
    Iran for its refusal to suspend uranium enrichment.

    "Those who think, that by using such decayed methods as psychological
    warfare and economic sanctions, they can stop the Iranian nation's
    progress are mistaken," he said at an annual military parade to
    commemorate the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war.

    He also called on the U.S. and allies to withdraw troops from Iraq.

    The UN Security Council has twice passed resolutions on imposing
    sanctions on Iran over its continued failure to suspend its uranium
    enrichment program.

    The US representative to the UN, Zalmay Khalilzad said a draft
    resolution providing for a more severe set of sanctions will be
    introduced within several weeks, RIA Novosti reports.
