Suspicion of Saudi Arabia
Families of 9/11 victims have launched a legal battle against Saudi Arabia and other states.

As the United States prepares to commemorate the twin towers of the World Trade Center and its twenty-year attacks on the Pentagon, the issue is sensitive, including a ceremony attended by Joe Biden in New York.
In early August, the families of the victims, survivors of the attack and members of the rescue team released a letter saying he would not receive a “welcome” at the ceremony if the Democratic leader “did not keep his promise”.
The letter called for the release of all documents revealing Saudi Arabia’s involvement in the attacks, according to the signatories.
