Trump questions Saudi account of journalist’s death
|(CNN)Saudi Arabia Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir told Fox News that the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi was a “tremendous mistake” and part of a rogue operation.
“The individuals who did this did this outside the scope of their authority,” he told Bret Baier on Sunday. “There obviously was a tremendous mistake made, and what compounded the mistake was the attempt to try to cover up. That is unacceptable in any government.”
Al-Jubeir said that Saudi Arabia was taking action to investigate how Khashoggi died and hold those responsible accountable.
