insistence that new United Nations sanctions won't affect its nuclear program
show that
Iran
isn't
"going in the right direction," the French foreign ministry said
Thursday.
Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki wrote to the 15 members of the U.N.
Security Council and told them the latest measures "will not affect [
Iran
's]
utterly peaceful nuclear program," the IRNA news agency reported.
The Security Council last month voted in favor of imposing a fourth set of
sanctions against
Iran
over
its uranium enrichment program, the most controversial aspect of the nuclear
drive.
French foreign ministry spokesman Bernard Valero said "very clear messages
have been addressed to
Iran
so
that it finally agrees to engage in talks on its sensitive activities."
"The letters received from Manouchehr Mottaki are not going in the right
direction. What we expect from
Iran
is
that it addresses the concerns of the international community with concrete
measures," he said.
Iran
insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only.
