Iran president: We won, enrichment will never stop -- By Reza Kahlili, The Daily Caller

Iran boasted on Tuesday that it has created a major crack in the international sanctions against its nuclear program, claiming it has achieved its goal of acceptance of its nuclear development.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani announced on Tuesday that the Islamic Republic’s uranium enrichment process “will never witness the stop of enrichment in Iran and that enrichment is our red line.”

Early Sunday, Iran and the 5+1 world powers, the five permanent U.N. Security Council members plus Germany, reached an agreement in Geneva over its illicit nuclear program. Under the agreement, Iran, in return for billions of dollars in sanctions relief, will keep much of its nuclear infrastructure, is limited to enriching uranium at the five percent level for six months, will convert its highly enriched uranium of 20 percent to harmless oxide and will allow more intrusive inspections of its nuclear plants by the International Atomic Energy Agency, which will be limited to only agreed-on facilities.

Rouhani said the Geneva agreement will transform the country’s banking system.

“The most important fact is that there will be no new sanctions,” he said. “This means that the sanctions regime has been broken.”

Sanctions by the United States, the United Nations and the European Union, especially in the oil and banking systems, have nearly brought Iran’s economy to its knees.
