Ahmadinejad, who is accused by Israel and some in the West of attempting to develop the nuclear capabilities, has previously dismissed the Holocaust as a "myth" and said Israel should be "wiped off the map."

At the news conference, Ahmadinejad indicated that he would continue to view Israel as illegitimate, regardless of a verdict on the Holocaust.

Ahmadinejad's earlier comments prompted a group of Israeli lawmakers and former diplomats to announce plans to sue him in the International Court of Justice on charges of conspiring to commit genocide, the AP reports. 

Israel was founded in 1948 in part by survivors of the Nazis' systematic World War II slaughter of 6 million Jews.
