Poland will launch an investigation into possible links between the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and Russian intelligence, as well as any impact on Poland, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Tuesday. The Russian Embassy in Warsaw also did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment. "More and more leads, more and more information, and more and more commentary in the global press all relate to the suspicion that this unprecedented paedophilia scandal was co-organised by Russian intelligence services," Tusk said. "I don't need to tell you how serious the increasingly likely possibility that Russian intelligence services co-organised this operation is for the security of the Polish state. Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in December that the Epstein files showed the hypocrisy of Western elites.
