Iran will continue its nuclear work "to the maximum scope" within the non-proliferation regime, but will give a reply to an international nuclear offer by Aug. 22 as announced, Iran's ambassador to Russia said on Thursday.
Tehran views as "unlawful" the latest UN Security Council resolution on Iran, which urges the country to stop uranium enrichment by Aug. 31, Gholamreza Ansari said, quoted by the Itar-Tass news agency.
"Therefore we don't recognize the demand that we suspend uranium enrichment in view of absence of violations on our part," Ansari said.
But Tehran will give an answer by Aug. 22 to the international proposal on its nuclear program, he added.
