The President of Iran has said Iran may restrict oil sales if its nuclear programme is referred to the United Nations Security Council.

In an interview with the United Arab Emirates' daily, The Khaleej Times, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said:

"if Iran's case is sent to the Security Council, we will respond by many ways, for example by holding back on oil sales."

Iran had earlier said it would start uranium enrichment and stop allowing UN snap inspections of its atomic facilities if it was referred to the Security Council in November.
