Un special rapporteur. Has described described. Jamal khashoggi as an extrajudicial killing for which saudi arabia is responsible how report calls for an International Investigation into the responsibility of saudi officials at the highest level including crown Prince Mohammed bin salam. And saudi arabias minister of state for Foreign Affairs has rejected the report. Says its full of baseless allegations and clear contradiction. While the u. S. State Department Says its looking closely at the reports and that it supports calamos mission to investigate extra judicial summary or arbitrary executions how does your caster has moved from washington d. C. The u. S. State department has responded to the u. N. Reports with a statement saying the saudi government should continue to ascertain all the facts and hold those responsible for the murder accountable and if additional facts come to light the u. S. Will consider further measures however whats left unsaid here is the international a knowledge meant of this trial happening now in saudi arabia as widely a sham trial lacking transparency the 11 defendants on trial there are not even named and so its still unclear how any additional facts would come to light all of this adding to the frustrations that some members of the u. S. Congress have expressed namely senator Lindsey Graham a republican who has been a strong supporter of President Trump but who have notably broken with the administration on the issue of Jamal Khashoggi is killing heres where im at a lot of this is classified ive been briefed by the agencies involved theres 0 doubt moment and this was orchestrated by the n. B. A. s inner circle approved by him done with his knowledge and as part of the way he does business u. S. Intelligence has concluded that saudis crown Prince Mohammed bin ordered the killing of Jamal Khashoggi and senator graham in december led an effort within the senate to approve a resolution naming the crown prince responsible for the show she is murder however President Trump has been hesitant to impose any sanctions or any practical consequences to saudi arabia in response to the killing citing the u. S. Is a close relationship with saudi arabia when it comes to economic ties as well as military ties and claiming that those ties that this close relationship is too valuable to jeopardize while the u. N. Secretary general agrees there needs to be a full transparent investigation into shock shes killing his Spokesman Says antinuke a terrorist doesnt have the authority to launch it himself james bay is has more from the u. N. Special rapporteur agnes kalama so shes not happy with the progress of the saudi investigation she says one of the best courses of action would be through the u. N. Secretary general and tonio good terrorist to set up a criminal investigation thats not going to happen just listen to his official Spokes Person the secretary general as weve been saying does not have the power or the authority to launch criminal investigations without a mandate from a competent into a governmental body. The special ruffle to is an eminent legal expert the secretary general is not a lawyer there are other lawyers who agree with her he has the power to do this what is icing this is his no one doubts. Credentials this is from our. This is the secretary its position this is the secretary generals basic faced on water legal advice can they see the legal advice if there is legal annoys you as you know whether in any institution advice between a secretary persons lawyer. And that person is not going to be shared this is. Our position based on the charter the secretary general ban is basing his decision not to act on this the u. N. Charter the governing document of this organization but nowhere in here does it say anything about his powers to set up investigations is relevant not just in this case the secretary general has said there should be an investigation into the recent tanker attacks in the gulf but again he says he doesnt have the power to set one up. Now yemens heathy rebels say they fired a Cruise Missile as a power station in saudi arabias just an province theres been no confirmation from riyadh its the latest in a series of strikes by the hurricanes on saudi cities in the past 2 weeks they want to theyll keep up their attacks in retaliation for the kingdoms actions inside yemen.

President trump from from the very beginning from when he campaigned in 2016 has had 2 messages about iran one is that he thought that the deal that obama struck was terrible not because the deal itself was so bad but president obama really was so bad and that he trump was so such a great deal maker he could make such a bigger better deal and the way he was going to do that was to get extremely tough with iran extremely aggressive and militaristic but at the same time hold out more and more of a you know what what would be in it for iran there could be more Business Opportunity with the United States there could be normalization there could be a comprehensive deal things that president obama actually didnt even offer iran so youve had these 2 messages come out of President Trump himself and he has tried to play his own advisors to use them when its convenient you someone hard line like ambassador john bolton his National Security adviser to really put forward a hardline approach or even mike pompei whos also a hawk on iran now turkeys president says egypts new democratically elected president Mohamed Morsy was killed.

Of him as well as governmental tory ts were quick to take advantage of the mishap accusing being behind the corruption scheme. His representatives are materially responsible but quite do is the mastermind of the alleged theft is a blow to the opposition that is frequently accused of large scale corruption one of the causes they say for the economic and humanitarian crisis is their business well as endured.
