In an interview for the Axios HBO show, released Monday morning, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi seemed to downplay last year's death of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi. The CIA concluded that Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered Khashoggi's assassination.

"It's a serious mistake," Khosrowshahi said. "We've made mistakes too, right, with self-driving, and we stopped driving and we're recovering from that mistake. I think that people make mistakes, it doesn't mean that they can never be forgiven. I think they've taken it seriously."
