joining me now to talk about this jim smith. he's a former u.s. ambassador to saudi arabia.e joins me this evening from washington. thank you for being here. >> poppy, good to be with you, thank you. >> let's get your sense of this successor, king salman. very old. same family. a lot of people are asking is anything going to change? will we see anything different? >> well, you say very old. he's 79. that is a culture that respects age and the wisdom that goes with age. salman as the governor of riad was known as one of the hardest-working people in government. he continued that trend as he assumed the portfolio of the ministry of defense and the crown prince. so i don't think age is an issue here. his health for a 79-year-old seems to be solid. and he's surrounding himself with a younger group of people that can help execute decisions. so i think we've got a positive transition here. >> so he's also been praised as a reformer. is that the reality? is there a real sense of reform that will get reform perhaps critically on some of the major human rights violations in saudi ara
