While critics say US presidents upcoming trip to Saudi Arabia represents backslide in Washingtons commitments to human rights, Joe Biden says he wants to reorient, not rupture relations and strengthen strategic partnership with oil-rich Arab country.
Biden used to call Saudi Arabia a pariah state for atrocities in Yemen and killing of Khashoggi, but evidence shows US troops conducted joint exercises with almost every Saudi squadron. Joe Biden said Saudi visit would support continued normalization between Israel and Arab countries.
A report says the United States plans to provide weapons to Saudi Arabia and UAE, irrespective of dismal human rights records. Press TV interviews Daniel Kovalik, international human rights and labor lawyer from Pittsburgh, PA and Judith Bello senior member of the United Nations Antiwar Movement from Rochester on the reasons behind and significance of this visit.
