Tony Blair met Jeffrey Epstein while prime minister

Tony Blair met Jeffrey Epstein while prime minister

Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has acknowledged meeting with the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein in 2002, several years before Epstein's conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor. The meeting took place when Blair was still serving as the UK's prime minister. However, Blair has emphasized that this encounter occurred six years prior to Epstein's guilty plea in 2008. The article does not provide any further details about the nature or purpose of the meeting between Blair and Epstein. It simply confirms that the two individuals did meet during Blair's time as prime minister, even though this was well before Epstein's criminal activities came to light. The article remains neutral and does not make any speculations or accusations about the reasons for the meeting or Blair's involvement with Epstein.
