OSAKA - President Donald Trump said on Saturday he appreciated Saudi Arabia’s purchase of U.S. military equipment, calling Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman a “friend of mine” who had worked to open up the country with economic and social reforms.
“It’s an honor to be with the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, a friend of mine - a man who has really done things in the last five years in terms of opening up Saudi Arabia,” Trump said ahead of a bilateral meeting with the crown prince. “We’re trying to do our best for our country, Saudi Arabia, and it’s a long journey,” the crown prince said.
The CIA has determined the crown prince ordered Khashoggi’s killing, while a U.N. rights investigator has also said he should be investigated over the murder, saying there was “sufficient credible evidence” of his responsibility.Critics have said Trump let the Saudis off the hook by expressing doubt in the CIA assessment and arguing that the United States could not risk its alliance with Saudi Arabia because of the threat posed by Iran.
