“I don’t see it as a setback at the moment. Look at what the administration has said publicly, they have said Saudi Arabia is a trusted ally, they are focused on defending and protecting Saudi Arabia….I don’t see the Americans turning away from us, or us turning away from America.”
-Prince Khalid bin Bandar, the Saudi ambassador to London, in comments to the Financial Times on the release of the Khashoggi report and U.S.-Saudi relations going forward. [FT.com]
