jomana, what's the latest? >> reporter: joe, the latest is the image that cnn has obtained surveillance video showing jamal khashoggi at 13:14 local time as he entered the consulate. this is something that really was one thing that everyone agreed on is that he did enter the building. the thing that is obviously in question is whether he left. you got turkey which has maintained he never left the building. the saudis insisted he was there for a short time and never left. we heard president erdogan here coming out saying it is on saudi arabia to prove the claims that jamal khashoggi left the building. saying they should release proof. we are seeing multiple security cameras around the consulate. release the images of him walking out if he did indeed leave the consulate. saudi officials are saying the cameras were not recording that day. something that is not convincing for turkish officials. they have not received a satisfactory answer so far from the saudi officials. we know an investigation is under way. crimi

jomana, what do we know? >> reporter: christine, more questions than answers when it comes to the disappearance. one thing everyone seems to agree on here is jamal khashoggi disappeared after his visit to the saudi consulate last tuesday. i met his fiancee out here 24 hours after that. she is still waiting for him. she was quite emotional. she said he was reluctant about going into the consulate. this is a man who left saudi arabia in the middle of the crackdown on critics and activists. he felt he had to do this because they planned on getting married here and he had to obtain the paper work needed. since the disappearance, we had conflicting statements coming from all sides here. turkey for the past week maintained he went into the consulate and never left. in the past 36 hours, we started to hear leaks by unnamed turkish officials speaking to the media and heard from adviser to the turkey president. saying he may have been killed inside the consulate. they have not provided evidence or back up how they rea

thank you, jomana. president trump weighing in on the disappearance of jamal khashoggi for the first time. listen. >> i don't like hearing about it. hopefully that will sort itself out. while many here were hoping the united states would help out. >> vice president pence weighed in on the disappearance. he called it on a threat to freedom of the press. >>> a warning for the u.s. donald trump tariffs will hurt the imf. it predicted 2.7% growth. trade actions will disrupt global growth. the imf cut china's growth forecast next year, but the world will feel the effect. if you have the two largest economies at odds, everyone will suffer. if the trade war continues to escalate, it expects lower business sentiment and slower investment. the white house is banking on the fact that the u.s. economy is so strong that this is exactly the time to hold china accountable. not concerned about numbers like those sdplchlt those. >> it is funny. both left and right get in the argument. >>> troubling details about the ac

we have jomana karadsheh with more. he went in to get a marriage license and then what? >> reporter: he hasn't been heard from or seen since, christine. this has been such a mystery. so many questions. the one thing everyone seems to agree on is he disappeared after that visit to the consulate on tuesday. you know, we met his fiancee who was out here and waiting for him after he went into the consulate. she said for some time he was reluctant about the visit. he did not feel comfortable. this is a man who left saudi arabia after feeling uncomfortable staying in the country. worried about his safety with the crackdown on critics and activists in that country. she says he felt he had to do it. there was no way around it. he needed the paper work to allow them to get married here in turkey. over the past week, turkish officials say he went in and never left that consulate. in the past couple days, we are hearing the allegations coming from several officials. some of them unnamed according to "the washington post" and reuters. we heard from spokespersons from recep tayyip er

. >> thank you very much for that, willem joma jomana, we've seen a fairly significant shift in the bond market perception. very curious after moody's didn't get the growth they were looking for. they were holding out and waiting to see the stem mu lus and see how the growth program could be it hasn't been much. >> the issue is their growth targets, nobody really believes the growth targets we talked about the other targets. when they say they think their fiscal impulse will add 6% to the italian gdp. the street is not buying it, certainly racing agencies are not buying it as well. no one out there thinks italy is going to grow at 1.6% last year. most analysts have it as 1%. if they're introducing all of this stimulus, if it won't have a tangible growth, then clearly it raises question today at least the market is giving them the benefit of the doubt. >> pushing panic around. i want to ask you first off about this debt profile because it's come up in the moody's conversation as well, that we're not tackling the debt going into what is likely to be another debt down the track. what do you

we have georgetown and senior fellow on international religious freedom jomana qaddour has joined us. the newly minted u.s. ambassador jeffrey recently laid out u.s. policy to syria with these three elements. first, remaining in syria while enjoying the feat of isis. that's something been the policy for quite awhile. then a real diplomatic push for to fight for the covers and end, the conflict in syria. and then as a third point he makes the removal of all iranian commanding forces. which so far seems to be the case. but it's one of the things we also discuss up here on the panel. so, actually, to kick us off on the question of new u.s. strategy, three of us here were assembled back in may on a panel, at that time it was called quality shou called "should i stay or should i go." i would ask my colleague to assess the newer strategy in syria. how much is new and how much it can be implemented quickly, in particular, the element of iranian forces in the country of the u.s. having a much more active policy. mike, why don't you take it from here? >> thanks. thank you for coming. i think w

and, jomana, let's turn to you there in istanbul, turkey. the latest on the investigation there into khashoggi's death? >> reporter: well, rosemary, at least publicly, it seems that the investigation is moving really slowly. as we know, that there are two investigations going on. you have saudi arabia carrying its own investigation, and turkey now for nearly a month with its own investigation. and they both have this working group where they share the results of this ongoing investigation and as part of that you have the chief prosecutor of saudi arabia arriving here overnight. he's expected today to be meeting with istanbul's chief prosecutor who is leading the investigation into the killing of jamal khashoggi. now, as sam mentioned there, you have this changing narrative from the saudi side, but at this point you have both sides saying that it was premeditated murder. of course, there's lots of questions that remain unanswered, and that turkey is trying to get the answers from the saudi authorities, and that specifically comes down to the

jomana karachi joins us with the latest. what is the chief prosecutors plans while in turkey and what are you learning about the investigation into the death of khashoggi? >> reporter: well, rosemary, the saudi chief prosecutor arrived in istanbul overnight, and he's expected to meet with turkish officials, including the chief prosecutor here in istanbul. those -- we're talking about the prosecutor who has been overseeing the investigation into the killing of jamal khashoggi. now, what we understand is that he will be getting briefed by turkish authorities on their investigation. and also he will be bringing with him the testimony of the 18 individuals that saudi arabia arrested in connection with the killing of khashoggi. now, this might not be enough for turkish authorities, as we've heard from the president and other officials saying they want the 18 extradited. they want to see them face justice here in turkey where they say this crime took place. and, of course, that request -- you know, that idea of putting through thi

cnn's jomana ka rarachi is following the story. a journalist could have been killed inside a consulate is beyond disturbing. >> reporter: beyond disturbing, and terrifying. just the thought of it, george, not just for saudis who pled the country because they were concerned about the crackdown in that country but also you've got so many other dissidents and oppositions from different countries who sought refuse here in istanbul. they're terrified about the possibility of this happening. we don't know what happened yet. there's no confirmation. what we do know, jamal khashoggi did enter the consulate last tuesday. and over the last week, we've had these competing narratives. you've heard from the turkish government saying he was inside the consulate and he did not leave. saudi arabia coming out and saying, yes, he was inside the consulate, he did apply for this official paperwork that did allow him to get remarried but he did leave a short time after that. but they have not been able to provide -- we have not seen any evidence or sur

but jomana, we have what feels like the sort of competing narrative from turkey run by president erdogan, a strum in the leadership here, and that of saudi arabia run on a day it day basis these days run by the crown prince. just talk to us and explain where that relationship lies at present. it has been fractious to say the least. >> reporter: absolutely. and from the beginning, it was clear that while this may have been a personal case for so many involved, for the family, for the friends, for his fiance, it was clear that this case was going to have far-reaching inch implications for the countries involved and for the region. the disappearance of jamal khashoggi from the saudi consulate appeared to be a diplomatic crisis in the making from the start, pitting two of the region's major powers against each other. but saudi arabia and turkey's relationship has been a rocky one recently as they found themselves on the opposite sides of regional issues. from president erdogan's close ties ties and president erdogan's move last year extending support and a lifeline to qatar during the saudi-

let's start with you, jomana. what do we know as the very latest from there? >> reporter: well, what we're hearing, becky, from turkish officials is that saudi arabia is not cooperating in this investigation. now keeping in mind they really -- turkish authorities haven't revealed officially on the record where their investigation stands right now. the only thing that they've said is that jamal khashoggi disappeared after entering the saudi consulate and that they're looking at a group of 15 saudis, including officials and persons of interest in this investigation. now one key part of the investigation would be entering the consulate and this is something that turkish officials have been saying over the past week. they can't just walk into the convention. they would need to get permission from saudi arabia, from the head of the mission before they're able to go in. earlier in the week we heard the foreign ministry saying they did get the approval from the 15 saudis. we heard yesterday the saudis have not been cooperating. listen to what they have to say. >> tra

let's start with you, jomana.kish authorities it seems insisting they are still not getting cooperation from the saudis and this investigation cannot take place until such a time as they do, correct? >> reporter: you know, becky, this is what turkish officials have been saying over the past week. they're saying that they're not getting satisfactory answers to start with from saudi officials about what happened, keeping in mind there are only two things turkey has officially and publicly said about the ongoing investigation. that he walked into this building and he didn't come out. they are looking at persons of interest, a group of 50 saudis who were in the country in the consulate and left later on that day during the disappearance. other than that, they say that saudi officials are not giving them any explanations, any answers. the saudi narrative saying he was there and he left. we heard this from president erred d erdogan saying they haven't provided him with any evidence. we heard from the foreign minister sp

. >> jomana outside the consulate and sam in riyadh. i'm joined by ambassador matthew, the former senior u.s. official covering turkey. >>> given your experience with the turkey and your deep understanding of the wider regional order or disorder, as the case may be, how do you explain, or at least assess the developments over the past 24 hours? >> well, the main development i think is the phone call between king salman and president erdogan here. if you note, president erdogan has pretty much stayed out of the news on this one, and he is known for his, shall we say vociferous statements from time to time. so, he's back in. the turkish government, in fact, announced the phone call. they wanted to show something is happening. what could be happening? number one, the fact that it was king salman who got involved rather than bin salman, his son, maybe shows that the king isn't so happy with the mess that his son has gotten saudi arabia into. in washington, we see u.s. senators now turning up the heat. senator marco rubio, in fact, said if t
