This Senate resolution commemorates the seventh anniversary of the brutal murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi by agents of the Government of Saudi Arabia in Istanbul, Turkey. It highlights the U.S. government's previous actions, including the February 2021 unclassified report and the implementation of the Khashoggi Ban , which allows for visa restrictions on individuals involved in extraterritorial counter-dissident activities. The resolution also notes the Office of the Director of National Intelligence's finding that Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman approved the operation to capture or kill Khashoggi. The resolution acknowledges that the U.S. has sanctioned 17 Saudi individuals under the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act for their roles in Khashoggi's murder. It then calls upon the Government of Saudi Arabia to ensure appropriate accountability for all individuals responsible, including those sanctioned by the United States. Furthermore, it urges Saudi Arabia to release all wrongfully detained individuals and to respect the rights of its citizens by protecting the freedoms of assembly, association, and the press.
