font size    

France, Britain and Germany will push ahead with talks with Iran over its nuclear program, said French Foreign Ministry on Friday.

"The process continues, each party has explained its situation and the contacts will go on," French Foreign Ministry spokesman Herve Ladsous said at a news conference.

"It is a process in which the commitments are clear and are to be evaluated, " he added.

Diplomatic representatives from France, Britain, Germany and Iran met in Paris on Thursday to discuss the Iranian nuclear program.

The talks came following renewed allegations that Iran has restarted work on uranium enrichment, testing equipment and a gas that could be used to make nuclear warheads.

Iran agreed in October 2003 to suspend unilaterally and temporarily its uranium enrichment activities, after a visit by the French, German and British foreign ministers.

However, diplomats said Wednesday that Iran has broken the sealput by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on the centrifuges at a nuclear installation about 250 km south to Teheran.

The equipment is used to produce enriched uranium, necessary tobuild atomic weapons. The seal breaking was considered as a sign that Teheran resumed its centrifuges building and assemblage. Enditem
