Iran says will never suspend atomic work - agency

TEHRAN, Feb 27 (Reuters) Iran will never suspend uranium enrichment as demanded by the West, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said today, after world powers agreed to work on a new UN resolution over Tehran's atomic plans.

''Suspending uranium enrichment is an illegal and illegitimate demand ... and it will never happen,'' Mottaki was quoted by the official IRNA news agency as saying.
