UNITED NATIONS — Egypt’s foreign minister warned Friday that a nuclear-capable Israel and an Iran pursuing nuclear weapons could trigger a nuclear-arms race in the Middle East.

Ahmed Aboul Gheit said in an interview with The Associated Press that Iran has a right to the peaceful use of nuclear energy but it must be verified.

If the existence of a new uranium plant was kept secret, he said, “that will shed doubts, of course, on the credibility of the Iranian position, no doubt about it.”
