Quote:US President Donald Trump has said he believes waterboarding works, stating "we have to fight fire with fire".
Mr Trump said that while radical groups beheaded people in the Middle East "we're not playing on an even field".
But Mr Trump also said he would consult Defence Secretary James Mattis and CIA director Mike Pompeo and "if they don't want to do it that's fine".
Both have indicated opposition to reintroducing the interrogation method, widely considered a form of torture.
Former CIA director Leon Panetta told the BBC it would be a "serious mistake to take a backward step" on torture.
