The BBC to 'defend itself' against Donald Trump's defamation lawsuit

On Tuesday, the BBC announced that it would "defend itself" against the defamation lawsuit filed in U.S. courts by President Donald Trump, who is seeking $10 billion from the British public broadcasting group.

"As we have already made clear, we will defend ourselves in this matter. We will not be making any further comments on the ongoing legal proceedings," a BBC spokesperson stated in a press release. The BBC has already apologized for a editing error cited by Donald Trump.
