TRT World online - Television live

TRT World Live Stream

TRT World is the English-language international news channel of Turkey's public broadcaster TRT, on air around the clock since 30 June 2015. Broadcasting worldwide in HD, it covers global news and current affairs with a particular focus on Turkey, Europe, Africa and Western and Southern Asia, and its live signal streams online.

From Istanbul to Washington and London

Although TRT's corporate headquarters are in Ankara, the channel's newsroom and studios are based in the Beşiktaş district of Istanbul, supported by broadcasting centres in Washington, D.C. and London. The service replaced the earlier TRT International in 2015 and belongs to the Association for International Broadcasting, sitting within a TRT family that also includes TRT 1, TRT Haber and the Arabic-language TRT Arabi. Its output spans breaking news, rolling bulletins, explainers and long-form documentaries, with recent coverage concentrating heavily on the Middle East - the wars in Gaza and Lebanon and the confrontation between Israel and Iran. In 2023 the channel's documentary Off the Grid, about the war in Ukraine, won an International Emmy, the first current-affairs Emmy for a programme from Turkey.

Current-Affairs Programmes

The flagship The Newsmakers, presented by Andrea Sanke, combines field reports with studio interviews, and Roundtable brings debate from London with Enda Brady. Africa Matters, hosted by Adesewa Josh, reports from across the African continent, while Across the Balkans examines the Balkan region each week. Interview formats include The InnerView with Imran Garda and Inside America with Ghida Fakhry; Money Talks covers finance, Beyond the Game sport, and Showcase and Compass complete the schedule with arts, culture and documentary storytelling.
