Hillary Clinton accuses Trump administration of Epstein files ‘cover-up’

Hillary Clinton has accused US President Donald Trump’s administration of a “cover-up” over its handling of files related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, the BBC writes.

“Get the files out. They are slow-walking it,” the former US secretary of state told the BBC.

The White House insisted that by releasing the files they had done “more for the victims than Democrats ever have”.

When asked whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor should go before a congressional committee, Hillary Clinton said: “I think everybody should testify who is asked to testify.”

The Clintons are due to appear before the congressional committee. Bill Clinton will appear on 27 February, and Hillary Clinton will appear the day before.
