SAUDI EXPLANATIONS LACK CONSISTENCY, CREDIBILITY: MINISTER

Canada has condemned the killing of a Washington Post journalist in the Saudi consulate in Turkey. Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland said in a statement issued Saturday night that the Saudis’ “explanations” of the killing of Jamal Khashoggi “lack consistency and credibility.” She also reiterated the federal government’s call for a thorough investigation in collaboration with Turkish officials. Khashoggi vanished on Oct. 2 after entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.
