Untold Facts About Tony Blair: BBC Reveals Controversial Meeting
Rokna Political Desk: The BBC has reported that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair met with American financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in 2002 at the Prime Minister’s office in London.
According to Rokna, the meeting was arranged at the request of Peter Mandelson, former British ambassador to the United States, at a time when Epstein’s sexual misconduct had not yet become public knowledge.
In 2002, a senior government official named Matthew Rikraft prepared a briefing note to ready Tony Blair for a scheduled 5:00 PM GMT meeting with Jeffrey Epstein. The note described Epstein as a “very wealthy” financial advisor.
Six years later, in June 2008, Epstein was convicted for soliciting sexual acts from a minor. At the time of his meeting with the UK Prime Minister, however, these allegations had not yet come to light.
