TEHRAN (FNA)- Saudi Arabia and the UAE have threatened to disclose the details of US President Donald Trump's questionable contracts and financial transactions with the two countries if he takes any action against the ruling Bin Salman family in the Khashoggi's case, a leading Arab paper reported on Saturday.
The Arabic-language Khaleej Online quoted a senior Saudi prince as saying that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has threatened Trump that if he helps a coup against him after the scandal over the murder of prominent Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, he will release documents and details of the deals which will trouble Trump and his administration.
According to the source, similar threats have also been posed by Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed who has declared since the first moments of revelations about Khashoggi's case that he would stand beside bin Salman.
The source added that bin Salman has also threatened Trump that he would cancel the major arms deals between the two countries and would withdraw financial support for tens of billions of dollars of financial investment in the US.
The report came after Trump said the CIA did not conclude that bin Salman ordered the murder of Khashoggi.
Khashoggi was killed on 2 October in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.
The US officials have reportedly said that such an operation would have needed the prince's approval. But Saudi Arabia maintains it was a "rogue operation".
"They didn't conclude," Trump said when asked about the CIA's reported evaluation by reporters in Florida.
Also, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Mohammed bin Zayed, tweeted to say the UAE "will always be a loving and supportive home for our brothers in Saudi Arabia".
