Iran president says wants more atomic talks

TEHRAN, Oct 4 (Reuters) Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said today Iran wanted talks to continue to remove the West's concerns over its nuclear programme but said Tehran would not abandon its right to make nuclear fuel.

''We are ready to talk to remove the concerns. We want talks to continue but if anyone thinks talks can be used to pressure us they are wrong,'' he told a rally in a town west of Tehran, broadcast live on state television.
