Support for Libya is one of the top agenda items as G5 leaders meet in Germany, with Britain refusing to rule out deploying troops to the country.

And Britain's foreign minister has raised the prospect of military support for Libya's government to attempt to drive the Islamic State from the country.

David Charter is Berlin correspondent from the Times newspaper - he says beyond agreeing that Libya needs support, it's a complicated issue for the G5 group.
