Washington (CNN) US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will meet with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and plans to address the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi during his upcoming visit to Saudi Arabia, Pompeo said Saturday to CBS News.

"I'll say what we have said consistently," Pompeo said of Khashoggi's murder.

"America's position both privately and publicly is the same. This was an outrageous act, an unacceptable murder. Those who were responsible will be held accountable by the United States of America. We're determined to do that. We're determined to get at the facts just as quickly and as comprehensively as we can," he continued in an interview he taped with CBS' "Face the Nation."

In December 2018, the Senate passed a resolution condemning Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince for the murder of Khashoggi.

The resolution stated that the Senate "believes Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is responsible for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi" and "calls for the government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to ensure appropriate accountability for all those responsible for Jamal Khashoggi's murder."
