PARIS, May 10 (Xinhuanet) -- French Foreign Ministry on Tuesday urged Iran not to resume uranium enrichment.

    "We hope that Iran will not do such a decision," said French Foreign Ministry spokesman Jean-Baptiste Mattei.

    "We hope that Iran will remain within the November 2004 accord that stipulates the suspension of the activities related to the enrichment and reprocessing, including the conversion," he added.

    Iran agreed on November 2004 to suspend all its enrichment activities.

    Uranium conversion involves turning raw uranium into UF6 gas. This gas can be fed into centrifuges that refine out enriched uranium, which can be directed towards making fuel for atomic reactors or the core of a nuclear weapon. Enditem
