Iran president seeks UN audience
Edited on Sun Mar-11-07 08:42 PM by Nutmegger


Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad wants to address the UN Security Council to defend his country's controversial nuclear programme.

Iran has defied UN demands to halt uranium enrichment, which Western nations say is part of a programme to develop a nuclear arsenal.

Iran maintains that the work is intended to produce nuclear energy.

Mr Ahmadinejad has addressed the UN General Assembly twice since 2005, but never the Security Council.
