Former NATO Supreme Allied Commander, Europe - Admiral JAMES STAVRIDIS
The former NATO Supreme Allied Commander; Retired US Admiral James Stavridis tells HARDtalk that NATO should be involved in attacking the so-called Islamic State in Syria.
World leaders at the G20 Summit in Turkey have said efforts to combat terrorism must be intensified after the tragic events in Paris - the latest in a series of attacks claimed by the so-called Islamic State. After the terrorist attacks France launched massive air strikes on IS strongholds in Syria. HARDtalk speaks to retired US Admiral James Stavridis, who was NATO's Supreme Allied Commander in Europe until 2013. He believes there should be 'meaningful action on a significant scale' by NATO. But are there limits to what military operations can achieve in fighting terrorism?
