Carmaker Renault fired three top managers who leaked "strategic, intellectual and technological assets" on Thursday. They gave no more details than that, but insiders told Le Figaro and AFP that details of the electric cars that Renault plans to launch in 2014 were leaked to a Chinese company. France’s Industry Minister Eric Besson said Thursday that the country is the target of an "economic war."
