TEHRAN (Dispatches) - Iranian First Vice-President Eshaq Jahangiri said on Tuesday that Washington's plots against Iran through sanctions and pressures have all failed to make the country collapse.
Addressing a forum in Tehran, Jahangiri said, "The Americans assumed that Iran will collapse under pressures, but Iran enjoys many capabilities in the geographical, economic and human resources fields and has been able to proudly remove the problems.”
 He expressed the hope Iran would be able to continue to remove the problems in future with collective will and determination, noting, "We should show that we can lead Iran towards development and progress at the peak of pressures.”
