Van Hollen Statement on Trump Claims About Khashoggi Murder

Today U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen issued the following statement in response to President Trump’s comments on the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi:
 
“President Trump’s suggestion that Khashoggi’s elaborately planned murder in the Saudi’s own consulate was orchestrated by ‘rogue killers’ defies reality. Orders must have come from the top. The U.S. must not be complicit in an effort to cover-up this heinous crime.”
