Ethan Chorin is a leading expert on Libyan affairs and was working at the Benghazi Medical Centre on a program to build trauma capacity on the day of the September 11, 2012 attack on the US consulate in Benghazi. Since then, he has spoken and testified on Libya before the NATO Parliamentary Assembly and the US Congress. His new book "Benghazi! A New History of the Fiasco that Pushed America and Its World to the Brink" is out now and provides the broader context and larger causes and long-term consequences of the 2012 Benghazi attack.

Ethan joins Nathan Eckersley to talk about 10 years on from the 2012 Benghazi attack in Libya and the state of US politics as a result of the scandal.
