Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi backpedales after calling the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi a 'mistake' by the Saudi government

Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO of Uber speaks in the green room at 2019 New York Times Dealbook on November 06, 2019 in New York City.

Khosrowshahi made the remarks to Axios in an interview on US cable channel HBO, saying: "I think that the [Saudi] government said that they made a mistake". A self-driving Uber test vehicle struck and killed a female pedestrian in the accident in Tempe, Arizona. Axios said Khosrowshahi later called to express his regret for the remarks to describe the journalist's death and sent a statement.

Whenever anyone speaks their mind and doesn't suit you, you pressure them into backtracking? What happens to freedom of speech?

Yes, it is a big mistake made by some individuals and the Saudi leadership was not aware of the planning of the crime and will not allow such atrocities

Saudi Arabia will contribute to investigate this heinous killing as the Crown Prince has stated repeatedly. Before making fast judgments about the case, the media should wait to look at the results.

Erdogan what he said about his killing of Kurds in northern Syria? he admitted it ? Did he take responsibility?

Uber CEO is telling the journalist what the government in Saudi Arabia consider it. That what it was a big mistake . And it will never happen again . Killing a journalist is unacceptable . That what he meant to say .

The pressure on Uber CEO is part of a programmed campaign against Saudi Arabia to undermine its investments and to boycott from world.

This is not inconsistent with what Mohammed bin Salman said about the case. The error here is that the crime was carried out without the order of Mohammed bin Salman or the Saudi government.

Dara said that he retracted what he said about downplaying Khashoggi's crime only, He did not deny what he said that killing Khashoggi was a mistake, I don't think he made a mistake

It is indeed a mistake since it happened by ppl who used their authorities wrong, and they took such a decision and in the result they are being judged by the MBS

&+47-4+%8747+5+%873%+))00 ft

Maybe he was forced to backtrack his words? People who say the truth will be honored. GOD BLESS KSA

Dara should not forget that, he is so close to murder of Jamal.

He only backpedaled because he realized his abusive statements were bad for business.

Only the first letter is the same. Murder cannot be a Mistake.

Donald Trump Jr. just got booed off the stage at his own event. Would be a shame if this went viral, wouldn't it? It is a mistake. Eleven of those individuals have been charged by the public prosecutor, and the trials have begun. We have said we will investigate. We will hold those responsible accountable and we will punish them.
