Biden fist-bumps Saudi crown prince, then raises attacks on dissidents
US President Joe Biden said Friday he had confronted Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman over attacks on dissidents during his visit to Saudi Arabia, a country he once vowed to make a "pariah" over its human rights abuses.
Prince Mohammed drew global outrage for the 2018 killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the kingdom's Istanbul consulate, an operation US intelligence services said he "approved".
Saudi officials deny Prince Mohammed's involvement and say Khashoggi's death resulted from a "rogue" operation.
