I can't run/open viber

I'm new user of Linux instead of Windows. I'm using Xubuntu 16.04, I installed the viber on my computer, but it does not work. I download file viber.deb from , and install it at the command : sudo dpkg-i viber.debWhen I run the application

/opt/viber/Viber

This is the error message:

This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb".
Available platform plugins are: eglfs, minimalegl, minimal, linuxfb, offscreen, wayland-egl, wayland, xcb.
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
