Peres works around the clock despite a tired delegation

Iran's dispatch of two navy ships to the Mediterranean Sea should serve as a warning to Europe about the nuclear proliferation risk posed by Tehran, Israeli President Shimon Peres said on Wednesday.

"This is a cheap provocation by Iran. The passage of the ships does not in itself present a threat on our region, but the real threat, clear as a warning light, is to Europe and the entire world," Peres said in a speech during a visit to Spain.

Meanwhile the president's delegation marvels at his stamina. On Wednesday he delivered a speech before 300 government ministers and newspaper editors, met with the Spanish Opposition leader and later was the recipient of the key to the city of Madrid award at the king's palace. In the evening the president delivered a speech in the presence of the Spanish President and Prime Minister and business leaders.
