are they perceiving they might have some european support for this? >> reporter: oh, i think absolutely. that's one of the things they're banking on. they're calling on the europeans to do. the announcement the iranians made today. they stayed they were going to quadruple their output of low-grade enriched uranium. they say they're going to reach the ceiling level in about ten days. ten days is also exactly the time their ultimatum runs out for when they want the europeans to have investment vehicles together for companies from europe to invest in iran getting around american sanctions. essentially what they're telling the europeans is what you need to do is you need to try to circumvent these sanctions from the united states to keep the nuclear agreement alive. one of the things we know is america's european allies as well as iranians are very much in agreement they want to keep the agreement. they disagree with the trump administration that the nuclear agreement needs to go away completely.
