‘Things happened’: Trump defends Saudi crown prince over Khashoggi killing • FRANCE 24 English
[Music] gasoline is way down. I think you’ll be seeing $2. Your royal highness, the US intelligence concluded that you orchestrated the brutal murder of a journalist. You’re mentioning somebody that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about. Whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happened. But he knew nothing about it and we can leave it at that. You don’t have to embarrass our guest by asking a question like that. That’s not Mr. President. And Trump doesn’t give [Music]
Donald #Trump defended Mohammed bin #Salman on November 18 when asked about the 2018 killing of journalist Jamal #Khashoggi, who was murdered inside the #Saudi consulate in Istanbul. The comments contradict a US intelligence report that found the Saudi crown prince approved the operation.

Imagine dealing with a country that silences the press, ignores international law, turns military on its own citizens, surrounds unconvicted migrants with alligators …
Disgusting and evil men … both
Two horrible dictators, desperately hiding from past criminal activities! Then berating reporters for calling them out!
Like CCP's does; The aggressor, abusive of basic sovereign rights was China CCP's, like they do to all their neighbors countries!🇯🇵🩵🇹🇼
Just criminals endorsing other global criminals.
Our guest is a murderer and can kill anyone in the room
Pure evil
Both men are absolutely disgusting.
He was happy to embarrass other heads of state what a joke.
There are several possible answers to that question and the fact he chose to answer that way. Wow 😳
Anyone who is shocked that Trump praised and defended a dictator who had a reporter murdered and chopped up clearly hasn’t been paying attention.
One of them killed general Soleimani,the other killed KhashOggi,Amerikans don,t have a problem with that.
He's looking more and more like he South Park version
Things happened?!!! What about the DIGNITIY OF THE VICTIM MR PRESIDENT ?
Money for TRUMP , BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS . THAT IS WHAT MATTERS TO TRUMP
Trump nice doll
i hope this journalist is around to ask questions on another occasion in future.
It’s shameful to see, the level of what the presidency has gotten to. Trump only cares about himself.
The US Intelligence
Trump is on level with Putin Xi and Kim
Gasoline is not down!! Things did happened!!
Khashougy was an intelligence funded ISIS supporter, he was a terrorist, and a western intelligence asset, that's why his death which was insignificant, took the spotlight
