Obama will meet with new Saudi king, who sponsored terrorists

The new king of Saudi Arabia, Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, has been involved in the financing of terrorist groups. 

 

In the opinion of several experts, King Salman played a very important role in supporting radical groups in Afghanistan.

 

In particular, according to Bruce Riedel, a former CIA officer who is now director of the Brookings Intelligence Project, during the war in Afghanistan Salman was providing $25 million a month to the mujahideen. He was also active in raising money for the Bosnian Muslims in the war with Serbia," the Washington Free Beacon writes.
