JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia, July 16 — Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman told President Joe Biden that Saudi Arabia had acted to prevent a repeat of mistakes like the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi and that the United States had also made mistakes, including in Iraq, a Saudi official said.Washington Post“The kingdom has taken all measures to prevent similar mistakes in the future,” the crown prince was quoted as telling Biden.

Biden had promised to make Saudi Arabia a “pariah” on the global stage over the 2018 murder of Khashoggi, but ultimately decided US interests dictated improving relations with the world’s top oil exporter and Arab powerhouse. Prince Mohammed, known as MbS, also raised the killing of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh during an Israeli raid in the West Bank.

“However trying to impose those values by force could have the opposite effect as it happened in Iraq and Afghanistan where the US was unsuccessful,” the statement said.
