Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair speaks to British soldiers at Divisional Headquarters in Basra May 19, 2007. Blair, on his last visit to Iraq as prime minister, said on Saturday he had no regrets about his part in the U.S.-led invasion that removed Saddam Hussein. On a farewell trip to a country whose future may define his legacy after a decade in power, Blair met Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki and President Jalal Talabani and discussed the situation in Iraq, which is beset by sectarian violence.
