Gerald Connolly Confronts Pompeo Over Khashoggi Murder: Will We Hold Saudi Crown Prince Accountable?

‘Did you discuss that murder with the Crown Prince?’

EXCERPT:

POMPEO: "So you asked three questions there, I believe. The first one was what was my knowledge base. I think at that time, I knew most of what had taken place, although I don't recall the exact sequence. I certainly have learned more about that since then. I've learned additional facts since that moment in time. Second question was did I discuss the murder, the answer is yes. I think I said it that day, that I had discussed the murder with him. And then the third question is how will we hold them accountable. You've seen the Trump Administration do just that, with respect to 17 individuals. We are continuing all across the government, certainly by overt means and all of the tools that we have in our capacity to learn more facts about this, and President Trump has made very clear that we will continue to work to identify those who are responsible for Jamal Khashoggi's murder and hold them accountable. We will, I stand by that today. I'm sure President Trump will as well."
