Boris Johnson has revealed that US authorities have not made an official approach to the British government seeking permission to talk to Prince Andrew over his friendship with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
In a radio interview on Friday the UK Prime Minister said that “everybody’s sympathies” are with Epstein’s victims but he wouldn’t comment on matters relating to the royal family.
When pressed about what the government’s response would be if US officials sought access to Queen Elizabeth’s second son, Johnson stressed that “no such approach has been made. It’s a matter for the royal family.”
“The law must carried out and the law must be observed,” he added.
