The Labour Party of Norway, represented by Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, has announced plans to initiate an external investigative commission appointed by the Storting (the Norwegian Parliament) to look into Jeffrey Epstein's connections to influential figures in Norway. Støre emphasized the importance of ensuring full transparency regarding the serious allegations tied to the Epstein case. This initiative is a response to recent disclosures that have raised significant concerns about the implications for Norwegian society.

Støre's statement reflects a commitment to accountability, as the Labour Party believes that the Storting's Control and Constitution Committee should now engage with the matter to establish a clear direction for further investigations. The proposed commission aims to provide an independent review, aligning with Støre's previous statements about the necessity of delving into these troubling connections to maintain public trust and understanding of the situation.

The broader implications of this initiative highlight an ongoing theme in several countries where Epstein's network has had far-reaching impacts. As Norway seeks to understand the full scope of Epstein's influence within its political and societal structures, this move could potentially lead to greater scrutiny of prominent individuals and institutions within the nation.
