介绍:
The Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, widely suspected of ordering the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, is expected to attend the G20 summit in Buenos Aires at the end of the month, the Argentinian government has confirmed. “The prince is on the list of attendees and so far we have no information saying he is not coming,” the presidential press adviser, Pablo Di Nanno, told the Guardian. His presence will pose a dilemma for world leaders on whether to participate in meetings with him – and could throw preparations for the summit into crisis. The CIA has reportedly determined that the prince ordered Khashoggi’s grisly execution in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, and other western intelligence agencies are said to share that assessment. However, Donald Trump claimed on Tuesday that the CIA had found “nothing definitive”. Asked if he would meet the Saudi prince in Buenos Aires, Trump replied: “I don’t know that he’s going to be there, but if he is, I will.” Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the Turkish president who has denounced Riyadh for the killing and hinted heavily at Prince Mohammed’s culpability, is expected to be among the attendees.
