Turkey’s Erdogan Urges U.S. to Weigh In on Khashoggi Case

(Bloomberg) -- Turkey has not yet delivered "all" the evidence it has in the Jamal Khashoggi case, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in a live interview with A Haber. The CIA has not fully put its weight behind the case yet and Turkey expects a lot from the U.S., Erdogan said, adding that the U.S. must weigh in on the case.

Continuing his remarks, Erdogan said the country is determined to bring the case before international courts and it will deliver voice recordings related to the murder. The country has already made different parties listen to some of these recordings, including parties from Saudi Arabia, the president said. Erdogan also asked three questions: Where is Khashoggi’s body? Who is the local collaborator? Who gave the order?
