By POLITICO STAFF 11/20/2018 12:48 PM EST
President Donald Trump on Tuesday said that we may never know the facts around the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, while emphasizing that Saudi King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman have both vigorously denied any knowledge about the planning for his death.
In the statement, Trump also praised Saudi Arabia as a great ally and said he understands members of Congress would like to see a harsher stance against the kingdom.
Our intelligence agencies continue to assess all information, but it could very well be that the Crown Prince had knowledge of this tragic event maybe he did and maybe he didnt! Trump also said in the statement.
