The former foreign minister is going to appear before the US regarding the scandal surrounding the sex offender.
Hillary Clinton, 78, is expected to testify under oath today, ahead of her husband and former president Bill Clinton, 79, who is due to testify tomorrow, Friday.
According to American media, their testimony and their answers to the questions of the deputies will not take place in Congress, but through a video link. The meetings will be held behind closed doors, so it’s unclear how much information will be made public.
What is the attitude of the Clintons and why were they not testifying
Hillary and Bill Clinton refused for months to testify before Congress in the Epstein investigation.
Democrats accuse the Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, of running a politically motivated process.
According to US media reports, the fact that the Clintons agreed to testify in early February caused Republicans to cancel a vote to start proceedings against them for contempt of Congress.
The former president will be called to account for his relationship with Epstein
Bill Clinton’s name and photos appear in documents related to the Epstein investigations. However, the mention of the name alone does not mean anything. The former president has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in connection with his acquaintance with Epstein.
For years, Epstein ran a network of abuse, victimizing dozens of young women and underage girls. The New York stockbroker had excellent connections in US high society. He breathed his last in 2019 in prison, remanded and awaiting trial.
