Jamal Khashoggi: Saudi Committed To Conduct Investigation

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Wednesday that Saudi Arabia is committed to conducting a complete investigation into the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Pompeo said this while departing from Turkey.

Pompeo said he would meet with President Tayyip Erdogan in Ankara, two weeks after Khashoggi vanished when he visited the Saudi consulate in Istanbul to collect documents he needed for his planned marriage.

Earlier, President Donald Trump gave Saudi Arabia the benefit of the doubt in Khashoggi’s disappearance, while U.S. lawmakers pointed the finger at the Saudi leadership and Western pressure mounted on Riyadh to provide answers.

In Saudi Arabia, Pompeo met with Saudi King Salman, the crown prince and the foreign minister.
