The impacts of journalist Jamal Khashoggi's death in Istanbul last month continue to unravel with Turkey accusing the US of trying to turn a blind eye to his alleged murder. 

US President Donald Trump said the Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, may have known about the plan to kill Khashoggi, a comment dismissed by Turkey as comical.

The CIA believes Khashoggi’s death was ordered directly by the crown prince, who is Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler, but Trump has said the US would remain a “steadfast partner” of Saudi Arabia.
