Speaking to reporters, Brigadier-General Amir Hatami said that the frigate which is of Peykan Class will be launched next Monday or next Tuesday.
Iran’s defense capability is a legitimate one aimed at self-defense like many other countries, the minister said, adding, ‘We have repeatedly said that we will not negotiate over our defensive capability.’
