The U.S. Senate has passed a resolution saying Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is responsible for the slaying of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Senators unanimously passed the resolution Thursday in a direct rebuke to the crown prince.
It calls for the Saudi Arabian government to "ensure appropriate accountability."
Senators voted on it after President Donald Trump equivocated on who is to blame for Khashoggi's death and praised the kingdom.
It's unclear whether the House will consider the measure.■
