Sen. Mark Warner on Khashoggi: ‘There Needs To Be a Full-Fledged International Investigation’

‘I don’t think I trust the Saudis on this, because I don’t think they’ve been very forthcoming’

EXCERPT:

WARNER: “I don’t think I trust the Saudis on this, because I don’t think they’ve been very forthcoming. I also want to make sure that we get whatever evidence that the Turkish government may have. I think there needs to be a full-fledged international investigation. And it appears to me that the Saudi story, even in the last 24 hours, has been changing to where they may be acknowledging that the journalist, Khashoggi, was murdered but somehow presenting the notion that it was rogue elements. I mean, come on, Jake. This is actually not some dark room or off some dark, deserted road. This is inside the Saudi consulate. And 15 individuals coming over from Saudi Arabia for what at least appears to be one task only and that was the elimination of Mr. Khashoggi.”
