Saudi Arabia could take part in military operation against Syria

RIYADH - Saudi Arabia could take part in military action in Syria after a suspected chemical attack that killed at least 60 people in the eastern Ghouta region over the weekend, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said on Tuesday.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday promised quick, forceful action in response to the attack, appearing to suggest a potential military response.

"If our alliance with our partners requires it, we will be present," Prince Mohammed said at a news conference with French President Emmanuel Macron, wrapping up a three-day visit to Paris.
