Kushner: We’re still working on gathering facts regarding Khashoggi killing
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleSenior adviser Jared Kushner says the Trump administration is still working on gathering facts regarding the death of Jamal Khashoggi.
“Right now as an administration we’re more in the fact-finding phase,” Kushner tells Van Jones at the Citizen by CNN conference.
“We’re getting as many facts as we can. Then we’ll determine which facts are credible.”
Kushner is seen to have a close relationship with the Saudi royal family which has been accused of having Khashoggi murdered.
Trump’s son-in-law adds that the goal is to maintain Washington’s relationship with Riyadh.
“We have to be able to work with our allies and Saudi Arabia has I think been a very strong ally in terms of pushing back on Iran’s aggression.”
