DUBAI—French President Emmanuel Macron traveled to Saudi Arabia on Saturday to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, making him the first major Western leader to go to the kingdom since the 2018 killing of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Mr. Macron’s visit, scheduled for four hours at a palace in the Red Sea coastal city of Jeddah, is a milestone for Prince Mohammed, who has struggled to repair the damage to his international standing since government agents killed and dismembered Mr. Khashoggi inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. A U.S. intelligence report determined that
, which Riyadh denied. The prince hasn’t returned to the U.S. or Europe since then and has been largely shunned by Western leaders.
Of course, so typical of 🇫🇷 to go begging
The president of French is very week at his last days in the ilysse and ksa always already to pay who polishing
This is the democracy!
Why would Macron meet with a clear murderer? Is murder of critics now acceptable in France. It’s important to stand for decency and isolate Saudi Arabia.
All about the subs?
🤦🏻♂️
Reason ATVI SUCCUMBED TO A HIT piece. This prince invested billion dollars
Researchers used declassified French military documents, calculations and testimonies to reconstruct the impact of a number of the tests. They estimated that around 110,000 people in French Polynesia were affected by the radioactive fallout.
On 2 October 2018, Jamal Khashoggi, a US-based journalist and critic of Saudi Arabia's government, walked into the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, where he was murdered.
Imagine if the value of oil had been falling since the 70s. How much leverage would monarchies have over the world?
I wonder who the barbaric and invading Europe wants to kill again. The world is in misery because of some insatiable people in Europe and America, their only concern is money and power. smash America smash Europe
He is only after the billions to be had in selling arms. This will come back to haunt the UK - and the other Europeans who rush to arm these countries.
The west remember khashoggi but not the 100s of thousands who were killed by the west wars and specially the US from Iraq to Afghanistan !! They all have names !!!
Shame on Macron for trying to rehabilitate publicly a blood thirsty, murderous MBS. Hope the rest of the West keeps alienating this barbaric man and show him that we are not in the 1100s anymore.
Awful. I would expect wsj to report on this favorably.

What? Oh right it’s about oil!
Oh he's gonna supply meat for his whore-ram!
People have short memories.
He must want some free oil!
That’s a no, for me.
MBS can put the photo on the wall next to this shameful display…
Macron needs to resign after that.
Kissing Some Ass For Oil?
I smell jet fuel!
Western liberals only love islamists
Imagine shaking hands and wanting to do business with people that murder gays, apostates, dissidents... while claiming to lead a democracy. Disgusting.
Still been helping him starve Yenen the whole time, so this is not an actual substantive change, just a change in appearance.
