Donald Trump et le cas Jamal Khashoggi: une fois de plus le président ignore ses services de renseignement

Comme ce fut le cas dans le dossier de l'ingérence russe, le président Trump préfère soutenir la version des autorités saoudiennes plutôt que celle de ses propres services de renseignement.

 "The growing evidence that Mr. Khashoggi, a Virginia resident and a columnist for The Washington Post, was killed on orders from the Saudi royal family has put Mr. Trump in an increasingly untenable position.

On Friday evening, the president praised the statement issued by the Saudi government, which confirmed Mr. Khashoggi’s death, as a “good first step” and a “big step.” Earlier, the prince and other senior Saudi officials had denied any role in Mr. Khashoggi’s disappearance."
