[speaking foreign language] >> we have come to you with a message from mohammad bin salman. i want you to be reassured. we don't have to approach from an official department. the saudi arabian embassy awaits you. >> when a siz refused, they hacked his phone against the israeli firm behind the spy wear. when the plans were discovered, jamal khashoggi panic and wrote god help us. >> how much of a target did that make you? >> the hacking of my phone played a major role in what happened to jamal. i'm sorry to say that. we were trying to teach people about human rights and freedom of speech. that's it.

i want to thank senator menendez for taking this seriously, especially since the death of jamal khashoggi, who was a resident of the united states ere, effectively under our protection, and i am hopeful we will get another big bipartisan vote when this comes up under final passage. i want to reiterate some of the reasons why i think this is incredibly. let me state right over as of uss, even for those who have been critics of saudi arabia, saudi arabia is a very orphaned ally for the united states, it is an important partner for stability in the region. engage ine to intelligence sharing with saudi arabia. they has helped us crackdown some very bad people. -- we haveelped us helped them crackdown some really bad people. is important to note something we take for granted in the region. detente that has existed between the gulf states and israel, something that did not used to be something that you could rely on. one of the most serious foreign-policy debates that this senate ever had was back in the 1980's, and the objection then was that by empowering saudi arabia, you were hurting israel

jamal khashoggi for sieg -- jamal khashoggi fatigue is setting in. years ago, the west new what i got into with the saudi's. it is a medieval culture. surprised.ld be they have been dealing with dissidents in this matter for centuries. >> there have been resolutions for the u.s. senate. haveressures the saudi's come to peace talks. there is still a blowback. would like to see hard-core evidence. the bottom line is western leaders would love to get rid of him and see him go. they also know how to deal with him. this young prince is not going anywhere. western leaders will have to deal with him. hinge all you want. >> craig is right to say it will not change a lot. has brought two issues on the floor. everyone started to realize there was a war going on in this saudi prince was the one who did it. at least that is something. we have been reading about things that were going to change this country. it is not going to change the country. i am happy he gives the woman not aght to drive, it is change of society. rhe jamal khashoggi murde showed that to the

khashoggi when he revealed that he had he thought the messages had been hacked jamal khashoggi reply was very telling it simply said god help us the saudi crown prince has landed in algeria in an effort to boost ties between the two countries but many are angry about is this it to north africa saying he's attempting to whitewash his image following the death of jamal khashoggi a number of prominent algerians a signed a statement against his visit. u.s. president donald trump said on sunday that china has agreed to reduce tariffs on american cars he made the announcement on twitter a day off china's president xi jinping and when his aires the two leaders agreed to a ninety day halt in the escalating trade war and said they'll use the time to try to resolve their differences the world bank says it's doubling its funding for poorer countries to deal with climate change to two hundred billion dollars the announcement comes as leaders gather in poland for un talks aimed at tackling global warming delegates from nearly two hundred nations will have two weeks to agree on details of the twen

there's not i think he's complicit in the murder of jamal khashoggi. there's not a smoking gun, there is a smoking saw. you have to be wilfully blind not to come to the conclusion that this was orchestrated and organised under the command of nbs. and this is bob corker. i have zero question in my mind that the crown prince ordered the killing, monitored the killing, knew exactly what was happening, planned it in advance. if he was in front of ajury he it in advance. if he was in front of a jury he would be convicted in 30 minutes, guilty. remember — the saudis have charged 11 people with involvement in the killing but deny the crown prince knew of it. the cia has concluded he probably did order the killing. that briefing by cia director, gina haspel, comes after a senate briefing last week in which she was absent. the secretaries of state and defence did attend. and mike pompeo said this afterwards. ido i do believe i've read every piece of intelligence but has come in in the last few hours. there is no direct reporting connecting the crown prince to

its role in the murder of jamal khashoggi. we have utah congressman, chris stewart who is a republican on the house intelligence committee. you heard a lot of outrageousness, in particular, lindsey graham and bob corker. especially lindsey graham saying if secretary mattis and secretary pompeo who girlfriend the initial briefing on the jamal khashoggi murder which the white house is trying to minimize. he said if they were democrats, he would say he was in the pocket of saudi arabia. because he respects them, he will assume they are being good soldiers. >> we have must more information provided to the senators. sitting on the house intel committee -- >> he made it clear this was open source information. it's not like more came to light in the matter of a few days. >> i think that's a possibility. he doesn't know what others were provided. i can tell you -- >> that's key if he was not provided it by the defense secretary. >> here could be because there was nor information learned. last week the information we were provided by t

these are words you won't have read in jamal khashoggi's columns. instead, they're whatsapp messages, never seen before, sent by khashoggi in the year before his death. they lay bare his disdain for saudi arabia's crown prince, saying, quote, he's like a beast, like pacman. the more victims he eats, the more he wants. in another, may god rid us and this nation of this predicament. the words were exchanged with omar abdul aziz, a fellow critic in exile in canada. >> he believed that mbs is the issue, is the problem. and someone has to tell him that, you know, you have to be stopped. >> talk like this is dangerous for those from a country with one of the worst records for human rights. and it wasn't just political views the pair was trading but plans to hold the saudi state to account, creating an army of so-called cyber bees on social media, leveraging khashoggi's name and the 340,000 strong twitter following of his confident. >> in the beginning, it was a bit difficult for us to have this kind of relationship. for me, i was a dissident. >> reporter:

senate leaders discussing the killing of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. summary of this is the world news from al-jazeera. after nearly all of the parties that i spoke with during the consultations that i held these last few days made these demands i'm suspending these text messages for six months. a victory for the so-called yellow vests protesters in france is the controversial feel times on the spot the violent nature protests is put on hold. can be canceled that opinion coming from the leading the european court of justice. we also called on russia. to. release the sailors and nato demands the kremlin free the ukrainian navy crew captured in the black sea. so the director of the cia is behind closed doors right now meeting with u.s. senate leaders in washington to discuss the killing of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. should cause controversy last week when she missed a trumpet ministration briefing on u.s. relations with saudi arabia they tripled from the cia assessment say the crown prince had been some and was the one who ordered the operatio

at the time of jamal khashoggi murder goes on to say the senate based on the intelligence given to it has a high level of confidence that mohamed bin so man was complicit in the murder of jamal khashoggi it urges the united states government of the international community to hold all parties accountable and then it does a couple of other things it asks the kingdom of saudi arabia to negotiate directly with representatives of the government in order to end the war in yemen also calls on the government of the kingdom of saudi arabia to negotiate a political solution to its dispute with cadotte qatar expeditiously and in a way that restores diplomatic relations with kids who are so this is a kind of wish list from the senate but there is some legislation with teeth going through the senate things that would call on the united states to end military aid to saudi arabia and yemen so this is one of a number of things going through the senate but it is very strongly worded in the bill hurry as a former u.s. diplomat and deputy chief of mission in yemen he says the senate just starting to vie

twenty summit canada has also sanctioned seventeen saudis over the matter of jamal khashoggi. i also. spoke directly to the crown prince to highlight our concerns and our need for better answers on the killing of to shogi and also the need for an immediate cease fire and humanitarian aid to go to yemen which is the largest humanitarian catastrophe going on in the world right now and is a subject that we brought up repeatedly in various conversations french president emmanuel macron flies home from the g twenty to contend with the off to mark the violent protests in paris the capital city turned into a battleground on saturday as a protest against mccracken's fuel tax escalated with buildings torched and vandalized about one hundred people were injured and two hundred others were arrested mexico's new president has been sworn in beginning his six year term in office under his manual lopez obrador has also been formally anointed leader by indigenous groups at a ceremony in mexico city the new president has pledged to end centuries of poverty and marginalisation for more than sev

turkey's president of the one revealed the case of jamal khashoggi it was raised only once in meetings with all the leaders and it was by the canadians he said the saudi crown prince gave what he described as an unbelievable response i asked him what he meant. did. the saudi regime first denied it and then tried to distort facts and finally admitted to this murder turkey has adopted a very determined attitude which is help disclose the so sure we have never seen this as a political issue and shall never do so for us this incident was a horrendous act of murder and shall remain so the canadian prime minister said he also raised the model when he came face to face with the saudi royal i also. spoke directly to the crown prince to highlight our concerns and our need for better answers on the killing of khashoggi and also the need for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian aid to go to yemen which is the largest humanitarian catastrophe going on in the world right now and is a subject that we brought up repeatedly in various conversations as the pressure grows in the u.s. to take firm act

it's pretty clear what happened to jamal khashoggi. it's pretty clear that the crown prince knew at least there was some type of operation going on, whether he knew he was ordering him to be killed or whether he was, you know, ordering him to be detained or abducted back in some kind of rendition. clearly there was a tie between him and some of his close aides. i think this administration is being pretty much pragmatic and saying we're not going to unravel the relationship over over this. i think the thing is they don't have to unravel the relationship. they can make some kind of punitive measures, use the leverage they have on saudi arabia for areas like yemen or qatar and still maintain the close relationship that they have with saudi arabia, this kind of false choice of all or nothing with saudi arabia is the problem here. >> right. there have been so many who have had ties to the state department who say that's what foreign policy is all about. it's how you craft policy once you know everything or you assess all of the details and

khashoggi when he revealed that he had he thought the messages had been hacked jamal khashoggi reply was very telling it simply said god help us well ronnie corey is a professor at the american university of beirut and senior fellow at harvard kennedy school he says it was crucial to his plans for activism against the saudi government that led to his death. this is really critical and this has come up before in the last couple of months as the herschel g murder issue has been widely discussed what the saudis clearly were concerned about was that the shoji had gone beyond just writing in the newspapers or giving and media interviews but that he was actually starting to organize something that would either their promote free press freedom of expression or maybe as we now learn to hold the saudi government accountable and that's the red line really that our political regimes and elites don't accept they don't mind of people talking and say things and tweet them stuff most of them don't some of them put you in jail for tweeting of the many of the gulf countries do but they don't want you

for the killing of jamal khashoggi which a lot of people and a lot of these centers is still believe there is a link directly to the crown prince. mohamed been summoned so what we're going to do is white and in fact here comes another u.s. citizen now let's have a listen by three words and. we have a thorough briefing a. lot i was it had briefings before you in this. briefing today basically. confirmed a lot. about the. reprehensible begin with. this is kind to. none of us in america would approve of any of it we're just going to be what you've got to find out if you want to but that's well somebody should be punished now the question is how do you separate those shall be found for it and it's good from the nation itself that might be the real policy you want you wonder how is it going to be the truth of the how are the dollars. do you believe richard shelby the senator just speaking very briefly once again to those reporters waiting in washington he talked about a thorough briefing from jena haswell the cia director and again with very similar to when. james mattis came out last wee

khashoggi when he revealed that he had he thought the messages had been hacked jamal khashoggi reply was very telling it simply said god help us the turkish president has repeated his demands that serbia arabia reveal the whereabouts of these body richard burton was as you look for international involvement to pursue justice if necessary he says he would have confronted the prince with all the evidence if you've had a chance. well the saudi crown prince has landed in algeria in an effort to boost ties between the two countries but many people are angry about his visit to north africa saying he's trying to whitewash his image following the death of jamal khashoggi a number of prominent algerians signed a statement against his visit mohammed bin samana arrived from the military and capital in the chart where as president sparked protests he has one last stop in jordan before he returns home matheson reports now from amman. jordanians say they know about the controversies surrounding the saudi crown prince thanks to jordan's media they know that mohammed bin some months tour of arab all

senate has turkey's investigation into the murder of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi is comes amid growing pressure on the white house to hold the saudi crown prince responsible for the killing a group of republican and democratic senators have met behind closed doors to discuss ways to punish riyadh's a bipartisan resolution has also been introduced which holds mohamed bin salman accountable for. jordan joins us now from capitol hill in washington do we know what took place in that briefing between the turkish intelligence chief and u.s. senators. marring we don't have independent confirmation of who exactly attended this briefing with the turkish intelligence chief a man named ha confidant but they did request a meeting with him to basically hear the turkish intelligence view of how she was murdered on october second at the saudi consulate in istanbul there are turkish news reports indicating that the meeting took about an hour or so that it happened in the last couple of hours here on capitol hill and that senators us seemed to be satisfied with the information that they heard from the

well i think what they reveal about jamal khashoggi is that he wasn't just a man of words he's a man that was so concerned with the crown prince's behavior in his home country that he wanted to take direct action there are four hundred messages between a dis dissident in canada and khashoggi and it's clear that he wanted to actually from what the messages reveal fund what he called an electronic army that not that involved sending sim cards back to young people in saudi arabia so that they could post on social media and not be traced and there's a lot to unpack here four hundred watts out messages between these two people but abdul aziz says that at one point he believes his phone was hacked using israeli spy ware and that really directly he thinks resulted in cause shock g.'s death it's something he says he regrets deeply but also abdul aziz was contacted by saudi officials whilst he was in canada and secretly recorded ten hours of conversations in which they were trying to entice abdel aziz into a building now he says that jamal khashoggi told him directly in messages do not go any

if i am not mistaken i would like to ask you about the jamal khashoggi murder. you said it was not a matter for turkey but for the rest of the world as well. during your negotiations with the world leaders, were all of the leaders aware of the severity of the situation and this matter was of a close concern to not only turkey but the entire world? are there any elements in terms of what needs to be done? pres. erdogan: i need to be very sincere in my remarks. can confidently say that it was not a part of the agenda to discuss the jamal khashoggi murder. summit,he leaders' only prime minister trudeau of canada discussed this issue and made an introduction and the crown prince made an unbelievable explanation. up on hisg to follow remarks but as the second session was going to be inaugurated by the argentine president, we did not have enough time to do that. but, during my discussions with this topic i raised to the extent possible. is intelligence agency conveying the relevant messages to the rest of the world about this murder and we will keep on doing that. the
