YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Donald Trump is threatening to sue the BBC for $1bn, accusing it of fabricating part of his 6 January speech in a Panorama documentary.

The letter from his lawyers demands a full retraction, an apology - and a huge payout.

Meanwhile, a former jihadi commander who once had a US government bounty on his head has been welcomed to the Oval Office. He's now the president of Syria.

Mark and James report on the extraordinary meeting, what it means for US foreign policy, and how it plays into Trump's push to reshape the Middle East.
