From a story on axios.com by Barak Ravid headlined “Biden fist bumps Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman”:
President Biden shared a fist bump with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after arriving in the Gulf kingdom for a high-stakes visit.
Why it matters: Biden once vowed to make the kingdom a “pariah,” and U.S.-Saudi relations have been strained over a number of issues, including the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.
- U.S. intelligence concluded MBS was responsible for Khashoggi’s murder — an allegation Saudi Arabia denies.
