Iran's permanent representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Ali Asghar Soltanieh said Monday that Iran will continue its attempts to obtain rights of uranium enrichment and will keep up cooperating with IAEA, semi-official Fars news agency reported.

"The Islamic Republic will continue its non-stop attempts to obtain its rights, including the use of peaceful nuclear energy and uranium enrichment, and at the same time will continue its cooperation with IAEA," Soltanieh was quoted as saying.

His comments came immediately after the IAEA's report, and said that the new report of the IAEA chief Mohamed El-Baradei on Iran's nuclear activity is something "regular" and "repetitive".

Soltanieh advised the IAEA member states to put an end to this "repetitive" and "boring" course, the report said.

IAEA presented a report on the new developments of Iran's nuclear program on Monday.
