Brown issues Iran nuclear warning
Britain is determined to prevent Iran developing nuclear arms, Gordon Brown has warned in an address to the Israeli parliament, the Knesset.
He said that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s call for Israel “to be wiped off the map” was abhorrent.
Tehran must abandon its nuclear programme or face “growing isolation”.
He said the UK stood ready to lead in taking firmer sanctions and was also set to vow to stand beside Israel in its “fight for liberty”.
