BBC World Service - World Have Your Say, Trump and Torture

Water boarding and other controversial interrogation methods. Can they ever be justified?

Following President Trump's comments on the use of waterboarding and other interrogation techniques, we hear the global conversation about whether torture can ever be justified. We also hear the conversation between people living on the border between Mexico and the United States and ask them what impact the wall will have on their lives.

We hear from people in The Gambia about the expected arrival of the country's new President Adama Barrow. And, after a court in Kenya ordered doctors to end a nationwide strike in the next five days or face jail, we talk to people waiting for treatment.
