A top state-linked Saudi media figure has warned that imposing US sanctions on Riyadh in response to the Khashoggi crisis could lead to Russia opening a military base in the kingdom.
The general manager of a Saudi-state-owned media company published an op-ed Sunday suggesting that if the U.S. imposes sanctions in response to the disappearance of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, the situation will get so dire that Saudi Arabia would allow Russia to install a military base in the nation.
President Trump said Thursday that he is not considering halting the sale of arms to Saudi Arabia in light of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi's disappearance and feared death. The president has ordered an investigation into the matter and there are no sanctions in place at the moment in response.
