France is pursuing its own investigation into the Epstein affair, looking at potential crimes committed in the EU country or involving French nationals tied to the US sex offender.

Around 10 new suspected victims have come forward since France launched a probe into late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his network, Paris’ top public prosecutor said Sunday.

France set up a special task force of magistrates in February to probe potential crimes committed in the country or involving French nationals who might be implicated in Epstein’s crimes.

    If Macron wants to play the “new cool leader of Europe” game, this is the angle he should go at. On a side note it is a sad day when actions of center right leaders is about the best we can get. Magyar and Macron is constantly making me feel this. Funny that they are way more likable than the president of the so called Labour party in the UK.

        Peru and Ecuador have already been regime-changed. No need to attack there.

    explains why trump has been very frantic to add gaffes(distractions) to news recently more than he usally does to distract people from epstein, funny how they dont bother reporting on the most obvious person other than trump involved with epstein, todd blanche.
