“Mohammad Bin Salman? He’s a friend of mine and you say you are the instigator of the Kashoggi murder.” Matteo Renzi, leader of Italia Viva, thus responds to journalists about his relations with Saudi Arabia. The senator, as is known, during the crisis of the Conte government flew to Arabia to interview Prince Bin Salman. “There is no conflict of interest. The only conflicting interest of someone who would like me to stop talking about Italy … Parliamentary activity is compatible with that of someone who goes abroad to initiate initiatives, in these matters everything is perfectly legitimate “Renzi says. According to a US intelligence report, Bin Salman is allegedly involved in the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who was killed in October 2018 at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. “Bin Salman is a friend of mine and you say you are the instigator of Kashoggi’s murder. The Biden administration has not sanctioned Bin Salman.”


“I didn’t get $ 80,000 for that interview, it’s a false statement,” adds Renzi. During the interview, the senator referred to the Arab ‘renaissance’. “That statement? I would say it again. I am very convinced that the question of the new Arab Renaissance is a very interesting subject.”
