As King Charles prepares for his visit to Washington D.C., a Democratic lawmaker is urging him to leverage the trip to encourage President Trump to release the remaining Jeffrey Epstein files. This action, according to the lawmaker, would serve as a demonstration of “international leadership” and help address scrutiny surrounding the Royal Family, particularly concerning Prince Andrew’s links to the late financier. While Buckingham Palace has stated that neither King Charles nor Queen Camilla will meet Epstein’s victims during the trip, the lawmaker believes a strong statement from the monarch, either privately or to Congress, expressing support for survivors and a commitment to holding those who abuse power accountable, would be a significant gesture. The visit also comes amid broader political tensions and potential overshadowing of the trip by the Epstein scandal, especially given that millions of related documents remain withheld.
