Epstein Scandal: UK Investigates RAF Bases, Democrats Scrutinize Secretary Lutnick

The latest reports on Jeffrey Epstein's pedophile network indicate systemic misuse of state infrastructure for criminal purposes. The British defence ministry has ordered a detailed review of archival flight records from Royal Air Force bases. Investigators are examining the hypothesis that Epstein may have avoided border controls by landing at military airfields, which facilitated the transport of victims. The ministry emphasizes that the audit is explanatory, but the scale of the allegations is causing significant public concern in London. Jeffrey Epstein's criminal enterprise, ongoing since the 1990s, relied on building influence among global elites, which for decades ensured his impunity and access to protected state resources. In the United States, attention is focused on Howard Lutnick, the current commerce secretary in Donald Trump's administration. Democrats on a Senate committee have launched a formal investigation after the publication of previously unseen photographs showing Lutnick alongside Epstein. Controversy also surrounds reports of missing files in the Department of Justice, which according to some sources may contain incriminating evidence against the sitting president. The White House consistently denies attempts to block the investigation, calling the accusations politically motivated. The scandal is also spreading to other European countries. In Norway, former Prime Minister Thorbjørn Jagland was hospitalized in Oslo following a wave of criticism related to his contacts with the financier, and media speculate about a suicide attempt. In France, testimony from Epstein's former assistant sheds new light on the close relationships maintained with the convicted criminal by former Culture Minister Jack Lang. European politicians are increasingly demanding full transparency and access to files that may contain names of influential figures from Germany and Scandinavia. „Es ist eine alte Masche.

Seizure of the deceased criminal's assets led to the discovery of secret warehouses with inventory that may serve as key evidence in upcoming trials. Experts predict that the publication of more names from the so-called Epstein list is only a matter of time, causing nervousness in political offices on both sides of the Atlantic.
