The True Post (Web News) US President Donald Trump has announced that he will begin legal action against the British broadcasting organization BBC next week.
According to President Trump, his lawyers believe that the BBC should pay him a billion dollars or more in damages. Speaking to reporters on Air Force One, Trump said, “We will probably file a lawsuit against the BBC in the United States.” He said that the matter has now taken a serious legal turn and he will soon take practical steps on it. According to President Trump, he has not yet spoken to British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer about the BBC issue, but he will discuss it soon. He said that this dispute should also be seen in the context of the bilateral relationship between the two countries.
It should be remembered that the BBC had apologized for editing a speech by US President Donald Trump incorrectly, but the organization has clearly refused to pay damages. BBC officials have taken the position that the error was unintentional and that an apology is sufficient. The BBC had assured yesterday that the edited documentary program based on Trump’s speech, which was broadcast in 2024, would never be shown again. After Trump’s announcement of a possible lawsuit, experts say that the matter will spark new debate in media and political circles in both countries, while the BBC is preparing to defend its editorial policy. Further progress is expected in the coming days.
