Jimmy Carter gave a(n)______comment on Mr. Blair in the BBC interview. [original

(21)Asked by me BBC how he would judge Mr. Blair’s support for President Bush on the Iraq war, former U. S. President and Nobel Peace Prize winner, Jimmy Carter painted an unflattering picture of a weak man.(22)In me BBC radio interview, Mr. Carter said that if Prime Minister Blair had spoken out against the 2003 invasion of Iraq, events could have unfolded differently. Former President Carter said the Bush administration often used Blair’s public backing to justify its actions in Iraq.
    " As one of me defenses of the Bush administration in the American public and the worldwide basis, it has not been successful in my opinion. It has been that, okay, we must be more correct in our actions than the world thinks, because Great Britain is backing us.(23)And also, I think me combination of Bush and Blair, giving their support to this tragedy in Iraq has strengthened me effort and has made opposition less effective and has prolonged the war and increased the tragedy that has resulted.
