The Center Party in Norway has announced plans to summon all foreign ministers from the last 20 years to a parliamentary committee hearing in light of the recent Epstein disclosures. These revelations implicate former ambassador Mona Juul and her husband, Terje Rød-Larsen, highlighting their connections with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The committee is set to meet on Thursday to strategize further investigative efforts.

On Tuesday, a consensus was reached in the Storting (Norwegian Parliament) to establish an independent inquiry committee following these concerning Epstein revelations. Details surrounding the contacts between Juul, Rød-Larsen, and Epstein have raised eyebrows, especially when it was disclosed that the couple acquired an expensive apartment in Frogner for what Rød-Larsen described as 'half price' in a communication with Epstein. This situation has ignited public interest and calls for transparency regarding the actions and relationships of prominent figures with a known sex offender.

The committee's upcoming meeting is crucial as member Geir Pollestad plans to push for the inclusion of all relevant foreign ministers in the inquiry process. This step underscores the serious nature of the Epstein revelations and reflects a broader demand for accountability within Norway's political elite, potentially setting the stage for significant political repercussions as the investigations unfold.
