We are a nuclear state,&quot; hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in the wake of a breakthrough in the country&#8217;s disputed nuclear programme. <\/p>\n<p>The regime announced Tuesday that its scientists had successfully enriched uranium to make nuclear fuel. Iran says its programme is peaceful, but the enrichment process can be extended to make the fissile core of a nuclear warhead. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;We will not negotiate on our rights with anyone,&quot; Ahmadinejad said. <br \/>ElBaradei, who heads the International Atomic Energy Agency, had arrived in Tehran overnight for talks with the regime&#8217;s top nuclear negotiator. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;We hope to convince Iran to take confidence-building measures including suspension of uranium enrichment activities until outstanding issues are clarified,&quot; ElBaradei told journalists at the airport. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;I would like to see Iran has come to terms with the request of the international community.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>The UN Security Council has set April 28 as a deadline for Tehran to halt enrichment. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agence France Presse &ndash; Iran&rsquo;s president has again rejected UN demands to freeze sensitive nuclear work, in comments coinciding with the arrival in Tehran of UN atomic chief Mohamed ElBaradei, [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28772,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1310","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nuclear"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
