Officials from China, the United States, Russia, Britain, France and Germany are due to meet next Wednesday in Shanghai to discuss a plan to restart the negotiation on Iran's nuclear issue, the Chinese Foreign Ministry announced yesterday.

"Under current circumstances, relevant parties should be creative, flexible and positive in seeking a proper method that helps solve the Iran nuclear issue comprehensively and permanently," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said.

Foreign ministers of the six countries released a joint declaration in early March, reasserting their will to solve the Iran nuclear issue through negotiation and agreed to map out a plan as soon as possible to restart the talks.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said yesterday Iran has begun installing 6,000 new centrifuges at its uranium enrichment plant, in a new snub to the West which fears Teheran is trying to build nuclear weapons.

Ahmadinejad was set to deliver a speech later yesterday at a ceremony in Teheran to celebrate Iran's National Day of Nuclear Technology.

Iran's enemies, the United States and Israel, criticized the move, saying it showed Teheran's intention to further violate UN Security Council demands to halt enriching uranium, which can be used as fuel in power plants or, if refined much more, provide material for weapons.

The Security Council has since 2006 imposed three rounds of sanctions on Teheran for refusing to halt enrichment work.

Iran, the world's fourth largest oil exporter, says it wants nuclear technology to generate power to meet booming demand.

Centrifuges are machines that can spin compounds of uranium at supersonic speed to separate out and concentrate the most radioactive isotope of the element.
