Saudi Ambassador to UK Calls Donald Trump a “Tweet Monster”

By Staff, Agencies

Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to the UK Prince Khalid Bin Bandar described US President Donald Trump as a “tweet monster” over his belligerent response to the attacks on Saudi oil facilities at Abqaiq last month.

Speaking at defense think-tank the Royal United Services Institute in London on October 14, Prince Khalid was asked about Trump’s initial response that the US was “locked and loaded” and ready to respond to the attacks.

“He is a tweet monster if you like. He loves engaging with people on social media,” said the ambassador, who was appointed to the role earlier this year. “He does so very quickly and sometimes it's just his initial reaction."
