TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran rejected recent European overtures to halt its uranium enrichment program in return for incentives and vowed yesterday to continue to expand its nuclear program. Government spokesman Gholam Hossein Elham said Iran will still talk to Europe about its nuclear program. The European Union said last month that it was open for further talks with Iran despite U.N. approval of a third round of sanctions. Six key nations also pledged to enhance a 2006 package of political, security and economic incentives for Iran to halt uranium enrichment.
