Biden and Saudi crown prince begin crucial meeting with fist bump
CBSN
President Biden and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman shared a fist bump Friday upon the president's arrival on Friday, an image the Saudis immediately posted on social media.
As a candidate, Mr. Biden pledged to make Saudi Arabia a "pariah" globally, after the 2018 murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi in a Saudi consulate in Turkey. U.S. intelligence in January 2021 concluded the crown prince approved the operation "to capture or kill" Khashoggi.
When a U.S. journalist asked the crown prince, known by his initials MBS, Friday if he would apologize to Khashoggi's family, MBS appeared to smirk slightly, saying nothing.
