UNITED NATIONS, Nov 19 (Reuters) - Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu discussed the murder of U.S.-resident Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi during a meeting with U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday, but no formal request was made for a U.N. investigation, a U.N. diplomat familiar with the conversation said.
