Mandelson ‘Betrayed’ UK Over Epstein Ties, Starmer Says

Описание: Keir Starmer said Peter Mandelson's long-term friendship with Jeffrey Epstein was mentioned in the material used to vet his appointment as UK ambassador to the US.

Mandelson is facing a criminal probe over alleged misconduct in public office after emails appeared to show he disclosed market-sensitive information to Epstein while serving as a minister.

Starmer said he regretted appointing Mandelson and wants to have full transparency around the appointment, but some material may not be published due to national security grounds or the risk of damaging international relations.
