Influential Iranian lawmakers on Saturday criticised a U.N.-drafted agreement that requires Tehran to send its atomic stockpile abroad for further processing, the student news agency ISNA reported.

Their comments were reported a day after Iran missed a deadline for responding to the International Atomic Energy Agency on the deal, which requires it to cut an atomic stockpile the West fears could be used to make weapons.

Iran said its answer would be given next week.

"Iran needs its 3.5 percent enriched uranium for use in our power stations. Consequently it is in Iran's interest to buy nuclear fuel," said Alaeddin Boroujerdi, head of parliament's National Security and Foreign Affairs committee, quoted by ISNA.
