Chancellor Angela Merkel slams Saudi's Khashoggi explanation as 'insufficient'

Saudi Arabia should provide "transparency" regarding the circumstances of Jamal Khashoggi's death, Chancellor Angela Merkel said. Separately, Turkey pledged not to allow a cover-up in the Khashoggi case.

People responsible for the death of Jamal Khashoggi "must be held accountable," German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said in a joint statement on Saturday, after Saudi Arabia admitted that the 59-year-old reporter had died in the Saudi kingdom's consulate in Istanbul.

Merkel and Maas condemned the reporter's death "in the strongest possible terms."
