New Delhi Feb 8 : Newly released Jeffrey Epstein documents expose the sex offender’s repeated attempts to ingratiate himself with Russian President Vladimir Putin, including offers of compromising material on prominent figures.
Epstein reportedly sought to “cozy up” to Putin through backchannels between 2014-2018, leveraging his network to propose intelligence-sharing and blackmail assets on politicians, billionaires, and rivals. The files detail emails and meetings aimed at positioning himself as a valuable Kremlin asset amid geopolitical tensions.
No evidence confirms Putin reciprocated, but the disclosures highlight Epstein’s shadowy international ambitions beyond his US sex-trafficking crimes. The files, unsealed recently by the DOJ, continue to ripple through global elite circles.
