Trump defends Saudi crown prince over Jamal Khashoggi murder: 'Things happen'

‘A lot of people didn’t like him’ Subscribe ► https://www.youtube.com/user/guardianwires?sub_confirmation=1 This is the moment Trump defended the Saudi crown prince over the killing of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi, claiming he “knew nothing about it” and “things happen”. Sitting next to Mohammed bin Salman, Trump responded angrily to an ABC reporter who asked him whether Americans could trust MBS given US intelligence’s conclusion that he orchestrated the brutal murder of Khashoggi. “You don’t have to embarrass our guest by asking something like that,” he said. The crown prince has denied ordering the operation but acknowledged responsibility as the kingdom’s de facto ruler. #trump #mbs #jamalkhashoggi #saudiarabia #saudi #mohammedbinsalman
