Vice Premier Shimon Peres on Monday called the Iranian conference on the Holocaust that began earlier in the day "a conference of liars" and "deserving of all condemnation," Army Radio reported.
Speaking during a trip to France, he added that the conference participants should "go to Auschwitz, Birkenau and Treblinka and see what atrocities the Jewish nation went through."
