A BBC spokesman said that while it “sincerely regrets the manner in which the video clip was edited, we strongly disagree there is a basis for a defamation claim”.Back in July, the President agreed to drop his defamation claims against the broadcaster’s production and commercial wings – but vowed to press on with his lawsuit against the main corporation, court documents revealed.It read: “All claims in this action asserted against the Studios Defendants are hereby dismissed with prejudice, with each party to bear its own costs and attorney’s fees.“President Trump shall continue prosecuting his causes of action against Defendant British Broadcasting Corporation.”The US President has said he feels an “obligation” to see the lawsuit through, with the case now set for trial in Florida in February 2027.
