Saudi foreign minister says he did not ‘hear’ US president tell crown prince he blamed him for Jamal Khashoggi’s murder.

US president has visited a kingdom he once promised to make a pariah.

On visit to the Gulf kingdom, US president says he made clear what he thinks of Saudi journalist’s 2018 murder.

US president says Arab normalisation with Israel and other regional issues are driving his upcoming trip to the kingdom.

Turkish leader says Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will visit Ankara next week as relations improve.

US president’s comments come amid opposition to the possible visit from legislators and human rights groups.

Khashoggi’s fiancee said she would appeal the decision that comes despite warnings from human rights groups.

Human rights groups say Saudi Arabia cannot be expected to hold a fair trial for the alleged killers of the journalist.

Development comes as Turkey seeks a thaw in relations with Saudi Arabia that worsened after the journalist’s murder.

Saudi officials had earlier said the detention of Saudi man at Paris airport was a case of mistaken identity.
