Washington, September 5 (RHC)-- Saudi Arabian King Salman arrived in Washington, D.C., to meet with U.S. President Barack Obama to discuss the Iran nuclear deal and other issues. This is King Salman’s first visit to the United States since he assumed the throne in January following the death of his half-brother King Abdullah. The group CodePink planned a protest in front of the White House to coincide with the meeting, denouncing the ongoing Saudi-led bombing of Yemen, which has sparked a humanitarian crisis. King Salman’s visit comes as the Pentagon and Saudi Arabia are finalizing a $1 billion arms agreement to provide weapons for Saudi’s campaign in Yemen, as well as its fight against the self-proclaimed Islamic State.
