Biden says he's 'sorry she feels that way' in response to Jamal Khashoggi's fiancée saying 'the blood of MBS's next victim is on your hands'

• He apologized for Hatice Cengiz.

• Cengiz claimed that Biden would have blood on his hands if he met with the Saudi crown prince.

• The US intelligence said that the Saudi prince was involved in the murder of the journalist.

Hatice Cengiz criticized the president for his decision to meet with the Saudi crown prince and greet him with a fistbump.

I was straightforward back then. Biden said he was straightforward after his meeting with the crown prince and other Saudi officials.

After a photo of Biden fist-bumping the crown prince went public, Cengiz published a mock-up of what he would have written had he not been murdered.

Is this the accountability you promised for my death? There is blood on your hands.

The crown prince was found to have been involved in the murder of the journalist. The rapprochement of relations with the kingdom could make it more likely for future dissidents to be silenced or even killed like the one who was murdered at the hands of the kingdom.

What a stupid question. I don't know how to be certain of any of that. When asked if there would be reprisals, Biden said no. If that happens again, I made it clear that they will get that response and more.

Biden said after his meeting that he didn't regret saying during the presidential campaign that the kingdom would become a pariah.

I don't know if anything is going to happen here or anywhere else in the world. Biden said no. I don't understand why you're so surprised by my reaction.
