Saudi minister pledges cooperate with UN rights forum, no word on Khashoggi
A Saudi minister told the United Nations Human Rights Council on Wednesday that it will cooperate with its mechanisms, but he did not explicitly refer to the U.N.-led inquiry into the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
 
"We will also cooperate with the U.N. mechanisms related to human rights including the Human Rights Council," Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir, Saudi minister of State for Foreign Affairs, told the 47-member Geneva forum.
 
Jubeir, asked twice by a Reuters reporter whether this meant that the kingdom would cooperate with the Khashoggi investigation led by Agnes Callamard, U.N. investigator on extrajudicial executions, declined to respond.
