Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Tuesday warned the European countries that any decisions of them oppose the country's nuclear program would be considered as "hostility" actions.

Ahmadinejad told thousands of his supporters in Sari city of Mazandaran province in Northern Iran, saying that "In plain language, I'm telling you that from now on, if you try to make any decisions against the rights of Iranian nation, whether in your propaganda or at international organizations, the Iranian nation will consider them as hostility actions."

"If you persist in pursuing this, it (Iran) will reconsider its relations with you," he added.

The president also reiterated that his country would not slow down the nuclear program despite mounting international pressure.

"Thanks to the grace of God and (the Iranian people's) resistance, we are on the final stage of the path to the nuclear peak. Not more than one step is left to be taken. By the end of the year, we will organize a celebration across the country to mark the stabilization of our nuclear rights," said Ahmadinejad.

Iran's calendar year ends in March 20, 2007.

Ahmadinejad made the remarks while the European countries were working with the U.S. in pushing a UN resolution aimed at punishing Iran due to its resistance on halting uranium enrichment work.

French Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy said Monday that the world powers at the UN were nearing an agreement on a Security Council resolution.

The council's five permanent members plus Germany are scheduled to meet in Paris later Tuesday to discuss a draft resolution.
