Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Friday reminded his country’s access to nuclear fuel production cycle, and underlined that Iranian nation will not give up even an iota of its nuclear rights.

Iran’s Oil Minister Kazem Vaziri Hamaneh says he is not worried over possible further sanctions on Tehran as the country has already been under such siege since the victory of the Islamic Revolution more than 27 years ago.

South African Ambassador Dumisani Kumalo said that his country would carefully scrutinize the draft resolution on new UN sanctions against Iran to ensure it leads to “a political solution”.
