Can anyone or anything challenge Saudi authoritarianism? HARDtalk鈥檚 Stephen Sackur speaks to Abdullah Alaoudh, a Saudi exile whose father is facing charges that carry a death sentence. President Trump says he doesn鈥檛 know whether Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi and frankly he doesn鈥檛 seem to care. Safe to assume then that he also doesn鈥檛 care about the hundreds of clerics, intellectuals, and dissident activists locked up by MBS鈥檚 security forces.
