Former U.S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia Robert Jordan spoke with Brina Kilmeade about the the disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi journalist and columnist for The Washington Post. Jordan says Saudia Arabia needs to come clean and have had every opportunity to explain what has happened. When asked what the mindset of the Crown Prince of Saudia Arabia is that would lead him to possibly murder Khashoggi, Jordan said “I think it is probably a combination of extreme paranoia on his part about even the slightest dissent even moderate dissent coupled with a belief that he is bulletproof in the eyes of the Trump administration.” Jordan also doesn’t believe Turkey is fabricating evidence against Saudi Arabia because “despite the fact our relationship is not perfect… they are still a NATO ally.”
