The widow of murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi, Hanan Elatr Khashoggi, has expressed outrage and disappointment after US President Donald Trump cleared Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman of any wrongdoing. Trump's statement came as a shock to Hanan, who described Jamal as a 'transparent, kind, and brave man' who was loved by many. In an emotional appeal to Trump, Hanan requested a meeting to introduce him to the 'real Jamal', saying that his story would change Trump's opinion about the late journalist. She also called for accountability from the Crown Prince, who she claims has shown no remorse for Jamal's murder. Trump's defense of MBS has sparked controversy, with many questioning the US President's decision to clear the Crown Prince of any involvement in Jamal's assassination. The incident has raised concerns about the US-Saudi relationship and the treatment of journalists in Saudi Arabia. Jamal Khashoggi, a vocal critic of the Saudi kingdom, was killed in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in 2018. US intelligence inputs reportedly found the Saudi crown prince being directly involved in Jamal's murder. Trump's clean chit to MBS has been met with criticism from human rights activists and journalists around the world. Hanan's statement on X read: 'The Crown Prince said he was sorry so he should meet me, apologize and compensate me for the murder of my husband.' She also highlighted that Jamal's desire for freedom of the press was a key aspect of his work and that many people disagreed with his opinions. The US President's remarks on Jamal Khashoggi have sparked widespread outrage, with many accusing Trump of downplaying the journalist's murder. Trump's praise for MBS and the Saudi kingdom's human rights record has also been met with skepticism, with many questioning the US President's commitment to human rights. As the controversy surrounding Jamal Khashoggi's murder continues to unfold, Hanan's plea for justice and accountability serves as a reminder of the importance of protecting journalists and upholding human rights around the world.
