TEHRAN // Iran said today that its uranium enrichment program would continue, despite an enhanced offer of incentives to stop activity the West fears could yield nuclear bombs. At the weekend the EU’s top diplomat, Javier Solana, presented Tehran with an adjusted package of economic benefits designed to persuade it to curb its nuclear work, but Iran has shown no sign it will change its position. “We have repeatedly said that enrichment is our red line and we should enjoy this technology. The work will be continued,” said the deputy foreign minister Alireza Sheikhattar according to the state news agency IRNA. More
