Oregons have specific problems in Saudi Arabia. Abdullah Man Samir Noura, a Saudi citizen, was accused of killing 15-year-old Fallon Smart in Portland in 2016. 

However, Nura's $ 100,000 bond seems to have been posted by the Saudi Arabian Consulate. His tracking device has been removed and he seems to have disappeared. US officials believe that the Saudi government helped arrange fake passports and provided him with a private jet to travel to Saudi Arabia.

With LIV Golf coming to the state, Fallon's death is not lost to Oregon officials.

"When Saudi Arabia tries to cleanse his blood-stained hands in a battle for the Oregons. Silence to get the wrong justice — Fallon Smart was killed in the immediate vicinity of our house in Southeast Portland, and the criminal accused, Hit and Ran's death was expelled, based on all evidence, a country near Saudi before going to trial. "

Weiden also blamed Saudi sports washing.

"It's just a page from Autocrat's playbook that covers fraud by misusing athletics in the hope of normalizing their abuse," he said. ..

Northplanes Mayor Terirenahanwas one of the people who signed a letter expressing concern about the protest. LIV Golf prohibits patrons who purchase tickets from protesting during the event. Only about 3,400 people live in the town.

"We oppose this event because it is sponsored by a repressive government that documents human rights violations. Allows Saudi-backed organizations to play in our backyard. I refuse to support these abuses through conspiracy to do so, "read the letter Lenahan and ten other mayors.
