The Israeli president has accused Iran of being at the centre of violence and fanaticism, warning that Tehran continued to develop enriched uranium and long range missiles.In an address to the UN General Assembly on Wednesday, Shimon Peres said: "Tehran combines long range missiles and short range minds. It is pregnant with tragedies.
Peres said that the Iranian people were not enemies of Israel, but "Their fanatic leadership is their problem and the world's concern."
In his own address to the Assembly on Tuesday, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, lashed out at Israel and its chief ally the United States, saying "the Zionist regime is on a definite slope to collapse and there is no way for it to get out of the cesspool created by itself and its supporters."
Peres also accused Tehran of dividing Lebanon through its support to the powerful Hezbollah Shia militia.
Tehran's "support for Hamas split the Palestinians and postpones the establishment of the Palestinian state," he added.More
