In his speech during a visit to Iranian province of Western Azerbaijan, the Iranian president blasted the efforts of the United States and Great Britain to prevent the development of the Islamic state, the IRNA news agency said.
The United States has long been pushing for sanctions against Iran for its alleged attempts to develop nuclear weapons.
The UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1696 July 31, demanding that Iran suspend uranium enrichment by August 31 or face possible economic and diplomatic sanctions, but the Islamic republic refused to observe the deadline.
The September 1 report issued by the International Atomic Energy Agency said that Tehran had not suspended its uranium enrichment activities and was blocking IAEA inspectors from inspecting Iran's nuclear facilities.
Foreign ministers of the UN Security's Council five permanent members and Germany are expected to meet September 6 in Vienna to discuss Iran's controversial nuclear programs.
The IRNA news agency also said that UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan arrived Saturday in Tehran for talks with the Iranian president and other state officials on uranium enrichment and the situation in Lebanon.
