LONDON (Reuters) – Britain has condemned the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday.
“We’ve condemned the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, we continue to call for a full investigation into the causes of his death,” Johnson said when asked whether Britain would suspend arms sales to Saudi Arabia in light of the conflict and humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
He said Britain was following a long-standing set of rules and conventions on arms sales.
