The BBC says:
UK Foreign Secretary Jack Straw has described as "unhelpful" the Iranian president's assertion that Iran has a right to produce nuclear energy.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told the UN his country had an "inalienable right" to produce nuclear energy - but said Islam precluded Iran having atomic weapons.
The US and the EU want Iran to give up any idea of enrichment capability.
Mr Straw said the speech was "disappointing" given recent talks with Iran over its nuclear stance.
"It is a difficult moment for the international community," he added.
Well most of George Bush's speeches, and certainly most of his actions, are also "unhelpful", but funnily enough Jack Straw never mentions that. More hypocrisy from one of the current ruling world elite (which is of course what the Iranian president was mainly complaining about).
