TEHRAN (AP)--Iran insisted Monday on its right to enrich uranium, expressing reluctance to suspend the key nuclear process as a condition for negotiations over a package of incentives offered by other countries.

Iran hasn't responded formally to the incentives that are intended to persuade it to step back from enrichment. But it has said that parts of the package were acceptable, while others weren't, and the key issue of uranium enrichment - a process that can make fuel for a nuclear power plant or material for an atomic bomb - needed clarification.

At a news conference Monday, Iranian spokesman Gholam Hossein Elham gave no indication of when Iran would reply to the package presented June 6.

When asked if Iran would suspend enrichment for the sake of negotiations - as many countries, notably the U.S., have demanded - Elham avoided a direct answer, but repeated the government line that enrichment was Iran's "obvious right."

"Our country will not negotiate over its obvious rights," he said. "This is a non-negotiable issue."

Iran's top nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani said Sunday that the incentives package was "unclear" on enrichment.

"These are things where the finishing touches must be made," Larijani told reporters in Cairo after talks with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Arab League chief Amr Moussa.

Egypt is one of the members of the U.N. nuclear watchdog's board of directors, which the U.S. and European countries are lobbying to pressure Iran to accept the deal. The directors of the watchdog - the International Atomic Energy Agency - met Monday in Vienna.

Larijani warned Iran would reject the package outright if Western powers threatened to apply sanctions. "We will not accept negotiations under pressure," he said.

The package, presented by permanent U.N. Security Council members the U.S., Russia, China, France and the U.K., plus Germany, contains a series of incentives for Iran to suspend uranium enrichment. They include promises that the U.S. and Europe will provide Iran with nuclear technology and that Washington will join direct talks with Tehran.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi said Sunday that Iran wouldn't be rushed into responding to the package. It would take "as long as is necessary" to study it.

However, European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana said Monday he expected Iran to respond "this week." He spoke to reporters in Luxembourg where the E.U. was holding a foreign ministers' meeting.

Asefi said the package includes "points which are acceptable. There are points which are ambiguous. There are points that should be strengthened, and points that we believe should not exist." He did not give specifics.

But the package drops demands for an all-out scrapping of enrichment, instead asking Iran to suspend such activity during the duration of any negotiations.
