TEHRAN, Iran - Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Tuesday rejected a U.N. Security Council resolution that would give Iran until Aug. 31 to suspend uranium enrichment.

Instead, Ahmadinejad insisted Tehran would pursue its nuclear program.

“My words are the words of the Iranian nation. Throughout Iran, there is one slogan: ‘The Iranian nation considers the peaceful use of nuclear fuel production technology its right,”’ Ahmadinejad said.

Tehran has repeatedly denied Western charges that it is developing nuclear fuel for warheads, insisting its atomic scientists are only working on the peaceful producd European financing.
