Summary

President Biden says his ongoing visit to the Middle East is an opportunity to fix the “mistake” of walking away from America’s influence in the region. But after visiting Israel, the next leg of his trip brings him to Saudi Arabia, where he will meet with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Critics fear the visit could end in compromises on human rights and democratic values that could further damage America’s global reputation. Correspondent Nic Robertson brings us his report from Saudi Arabia, examining Bin Salman’s reformist vision – and his brutal record. Also on today's show: Saudi human rights activist Lina al-Hathloul; US Senate Democrat Raphael Warnock; Yariv Mozer, director of The Devil’s Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes.
