Trump threatens Iran with ‘massive armada’

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

President Trump has warned Iran that time is running out to negotiate a nuclear deal, threatening Tehran with a ‘massive armada’ headed to the Middle East. We assess the US military build up in the region and hear what protestors inside Iran think. Also on the programme: As Keir Starmer prepares to meet the Chinese President, we hear from the son of jailed British pro-democracy campaigner Jimmy Lai. And the two-year-old snooker prodigy who has broken two world records with his trick shots.
