<p>The Government remains &#8220;gravely concerned&#8221; over Iran&#8217;s nuclear ambitions, the Foreign Office has said.</p>
<p>Junior Foreign Office minister Alistair Burt said President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad&#8217;s hardline Islamist regime had taken &#8220;a significant step towards weapons grade enrichment&#8221;.</p>
<p>He vowed to press Iran into negotiations over its uranium enrichment programme.</p>
<p>Mr Burt said: &#8220;We continue to be gravely concerned about the Iranian nuclear programme.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added: &#8220;It will now be essential to increase the pressure on Iran to convince it to negotiate seriously.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mr Burt&#8217;s comments came in written Parliamentary answers to Tory MP David Amess.</p>
<p>The minister said the most up-to-date International Atomic Energy Agency report found Iran had produced 3,183kg of 3.5% low-grade uranium and 33kg of 20% enriched uranium.</p>
<p>Mr Burt said Iran &#8220;was still failing to address the wide range of concerns over possible military dimensions of its programme&#8221;.</p>
<p>He said the UK, China, France, Germany, Russia and the US &#8211; known as the P5+1 group &#8211; were &#8220;committed to pursuing a diplomatic solution and that the door to further dialogue remained open&#8221;.</p>
