“I don't regret anything I said.
What happened to Khashoggi was outrageous, ”RIA Novosti quotes the American leader.
During his visit to the country, he also noted that he considers the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, responsible for the murder of a journalist.
In February 2021, the US imposed visa sanctions on 76 Saudi citizens in connection with the 2018 assassination of Khashoggi.
The journalist was killed at the Saudi Arabian Consulate General in Istanbul on October 2, 2018.
Later, the Saudi authorities said that he was killed in the building of the diplomatic mission as a result of the conflict.
