Bush said that "the Iraqis have defied the terrorists" and have shown the world they want to live in a free society.
Blair, a strong ally for the Iraq war, said differences caused by the war are now over.
"Whatever the differences in the international community have been over the past couple of years, I think we have a really solid basis now for going forward in a unified way," Blair said.
On the Middle East, Blair said he sees "every possibility now" of attaining a peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians.
Bush later traveled to NATO headquarters for a brief meeting with Ukraine's President Viktor Yushchenko and a summit of the alliance's 26 member states. Bush is later due to meet European Union leaders.
