Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sniffed at a resolution adopted by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which reports Iran's nuclear case to the U.N. Security Council, the official IRNA news agency said on Sunday.

"You (countries which supported to report Iran's case to the U. N.)can issue as many resolutions as you like and dream on. But you cannot prevent Iranian nation's progress," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying.

Ahmadinejad accused the concerned countries of "inspecting Iran 's military sites in the name of the IAEA to become aware of Iran's defensive might, but we will not allow them to do so."

The IAEA board of governors on Saturday adopted a resolution drafted by the European Union (EU) to report Iran's case to the U. N. Security Council.

The hardline president said "the enemies of Iran" could not prevent Iran from making progress in nuclear technology.

"The enemies of the Islamic Republic are furious because the Iranian nation has dared to grow its self-confidence out of their domination sphere," he said.

In response to the IAEA resolution, Ahmadinejad said late Saturday that Iran would end the implementation of the additional protocol of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and other confidence-building measures on the nuclear issue as of Sunday.

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said at a news conference on Sunday that the Islamic Republic had ended all voluntary cooperative measures with the IAEA including snap inspections and suspension of sensitive uranium enrichment according to the president's order.

Iranian Majlis (Parliament) Speaker Gholam-Ali Haddad Adel also said on Sunday that the IAEA resolution and the highly disputed cartoons of Islamic Prophet Mohammed recently published by some European media "stemmed from one cause".

"The West cannot tolerate Muslims dignity and authority so, it is determined to humiliate them," Adel was quoted by IRNA as saying.
