Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has described the 2018 killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi as a “huge mistake,” stressing efforts to prevent such incidents in the future.

The remarks came during a meeting with former U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House. Khashoggi, a critic of the Saudi leadership, was murdered inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey, an act that caused an international outcry and a brief diplomatic crisis.

Trump referred to Khashoggi as “extremely controversial,” adding, “A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about. Whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happened. But he (the prince) knew nothing about it.”

Prince Mohammed said of the journalist’s killing by Saudi agents: “It’s painful and it’s a huge mistake, and we are doing our best that this doesn’t happen again.” Saudi officials have maintained that the murder was a rogue operation, not directed by the kingdom’s leadership.

During the Oval Office discussion, Trump also defended the prince, calling him a “very good friend” and praising his work on “human rights, and everything else.” When a reporter asked about the Khashoggi case, Trump intervened, saying, “You don’t have to embarrass our guest by asking a question like that. Leave it at that.”
