Trump: We have the tape of killing Jamal Khashoggi; I don’t want to hear the tape

SANAA, Nov. 19 (YPA) –  US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has told him five times that he was not involved in the killing of the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Trump declined to listen to a recording tape of the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, describing it “a suffering tape” and “terrible.”

Earlier on Saturday, Trump said that it was premature to accuse Mohammed bin Salman of murdering Khashoggi after the US intelligence service disclosed its final assessment that Ben Salman ordered the killing of Khashoggi.
