Norway’s Leaders Admit “Poor Judgment” Over Ties to Epstein
"The Crown Princess herself has stated that she has shown poor judgment, which I agree with. I also believe that Thorbjorn Jagland has done so," Store told a broadcaster.
Responding to Store’s comments, Jagland wrote to a newspaper confirming that he shared the prime minister’s view and acknowledged he had "shown poor judgment" by maintaining contact with Epstein. "I would never have had this contact if I knew what we know now," he added.
After the US Justice Department made the latest Epstein-related documents public on Friday, Mette-Marit admitted on Saturday that she should have examined Epstein’s background more carefully.
"I deeply regret that, and this is a responsibility I must take. I showed poor judgment and regret ever having any contact with Epstein. It is simply embarrassing," she said.
The newly released documents revealed that Mette-Marit had maintained years of correspondence with Epstein, met him on multiple occasions, and even borrowed his residence in 2013.
In addition, Mette-Marit conveyed her "deep sympathy and solidarity with the victims of the abuse committed by Jeffrey Epstein."
The unsealed court papers from a US federal court also disclosed the names of various global leaders, royals, billionaires, and other influential figures who were connected to the disgraced financier.
