Lieberman: Iran's announcement shows it's in state of panic

Defense Minister said Tuesday that Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s announcement that he has ordered preparations to increase uranium enrichment capacity is “a sign of the hysteria and panic in the Iranian leadership."

“It’s a response to Peugeot’s announcement that it is suspending its activity in Tehran," he went on to say.

"When such a corporation announces that it is leaving Iran because of the sanctions, it’s a sort of signal to the entire business community, to all the investors, and this is not a marginal company," Lieberman added.
