Haftar Threatens Turkey with War | UK-Turkey Trade Deal

Libyan warlord Khalifa Haftar has threatened to directly target Turkish troops if Ankara doesn’t cease its support for the UN-backed Government of National Accord. Turkey responded by saying that Haftar and his troops will be considered “legitimate targets” if they attack Turkish troops in the area. After a ceasefire deal in October to end the Libyan conflict, could this upend a shaky peace? Also, we talk about the new free trade deal between the UK and Turkey.
