Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed on Sunday to reveal within days the “naked truth” over the death of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.
US President Donald Trump has refused to take a harsh stance against Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, whom the US leader has defended as an invaluable trade partner even as world powers demand answers over the October 2 killing of Khashoggi, a vocal critic and Washington Post columnist who fell out of favour with Riyadh.
But the Saudi foreign minister, Adel al-Jubeir, insisted on Sunday that Prince Mohammed was “not aware” of the killing and that the kingdom does not know where the body is.
