Trump Ordered to Testify Under Oath in Defamation Lawsuit Against BBC

A U.S. judge has issued a ruling requiring former President Donald Trump to sit for a deposition in his $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC. The judge set a deadline of December 11 for Trump to provide his testimony under oath. This decision comes after Trump previously indicated he was too busy to attend the deposition, citing obligations related to international matters. The judge has warned Trump that failure to comply with this order could result in sanctions and may jeopardize his case. The legal battle continues as both Trump and the BBC prepare for the upcoming court proceedings.
