Video insights

@thetelegraph's TikTok video "Donald Trump is having to be dragged “kicking and screaming” to give evidence in his own defamation case against the BBC, the broadcaster has claimed. The US president had agreed to be interviewed by the BBC’s legal team this week as part of his $10bn (£7.5bn) legal action against the broadcaster, but cancelled and said he would not be available until next year. Lawyers for the BBC said Mr Trump had “flouted” the legal process. They cited a previous case in which a judge ruled that: “It is not the court’s role, nor that of opposing counsel, to drag a party kicking and screaming through the discovery process.” Tap the sticker for the full article" has 7,294 views, 238 likes, 14 comments, 9 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
