Iran has every right to enrich uranium: Blix

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Berlin, Oct 25, IRNA -- Iran has every right to conduct a uranium 
enrichment program, former United Nations chief weapons inspector 
Hans Blix was quoted as saying Monday on the website of the German 
television network Ard. 
If the West urges Iran to give up its uranium enrichment, "then 
you are asking them to give something up they have a right to be 
doing. Then you have to accept that they (Iranians) will make 
demands," Blix added. 
The 76-year-old Swede called on Western countries to offer 
concessions to Iran if they want Tehran to abandon its uranium 
enrichment. 
Blix cited improved trade relations and a non-aggression pact as 
possible incentives to persuade Iran to drop its uranium enrichment 
program.
