Rafsanjani says giving up nuclear rights would be ‘shameful’
TEHERAN - Iran’s former influential president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said on Friday that it would be “shameful” for Tehran to give up its right to peaceful nuclear technology.
"We'd rather be dead than be shamed!"
“The monopolistic powers want to deprive us of our legitimate right but with wisdom and suitable actions we will not allow them,” Rafsanjani said in a Friday sermon broadcast on state radio. “Future generations would consider it shameful that their country was deprived (of nuclear technology).”

Iran has said it may resume sensitive uranium enrichment activities, a key part of the nuclear fuel cycle, if it is not happy with the result of negotiations with the European Union on its nuclear programme.
