Iran would make a very, very serious mistake if it thinks the international community is going to allow it to develop nuclear weapons capability, Blair told a session of the Liaison Committee of the United Kingdom Parliament.
He described recent comments by hard-line Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad against Israel as extremely inflammatory.
Ahmadinejad said that the Holocaust was a myth and called for the Jewish state to be wiped off the map.
Blair also accused Iran of exporting terrorism in the region. It’s a problem, he said.
The concern about Iran is growing very, very substantially.
