Is Tony Blair a traitor?

I read just now that Tony Blair had been advising President Macron on how best to prevent the UK from leaving the EU. I don’t know the details, but if this is true, should Blair not be charged with treason?

The elites see the EU as preserving their power, so yes in some respects it is a betrayal of what the country voted for. But at some other level, the EU was created as Europes answer to superpowers like the US, Russia and China, if Europe fragments into a whole bunch of countries, there's a higher chance it'll be divided and conquered by a strident and coordinated greater power in the long run.
