Slovakia's Security Adviser Resigns Over Epstein File Links
Miroslav Lajcak resigned amid political pressure after U.S. Justice Department files revealed his 2018 meetings and messages with Epstein, prompting scrutiny of ties to powerful figures.
- On Saturday, Prime Minister Robert Fico said he accepted Miroslav Lajcak's resignation after U.S. files showed he exchanged messages with Jeffrey Epstein.
- On Friday, the U.S. Department of Justice published more than 3 million pages, over 2,000 videos and 180,000 images on the department's website.
- October 2018 texts show Epstein invited Lajcak to dinners and a March 2018 get‑together with Bannon and Ruemmler, and Lajcak said such contacts were part of his diplomatic duties.
- Prime Minister Fico accepted the resignation amid opposition and coalition pressure, with Lajcak citing political concerns to avoid Fico's harm.
- The files revived questions about Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor, and Rep. Jamie Raskin pressed for unredacted review by Sunday while survivors' groups criticized Justice Department redactions.
