Russias top diplomat said the late US financiers crimes are beyond comprehension

The decadent lifestyle of disgraced US financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his entourage is a testament to the moral decay of Western elites, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said.

Last month, the US Department of Justice released a large trove of emails, photos, and videos from the Epstein Estate, prompting renewed scrutiny of high-profile individuals who associated with Epstein despite his conviction for sex crimes.

The files "have revealed the face of the West and the deep state, or rather a deep union that rules the entire West and seeks to rule the whole world," Lavrov said in an interview with NTV aired on Sunday.

"Every normal person knows this is beyond comprehension and pure satanism," Lavrov added.

In 2019, Epstein died in a New York jail cell in what was ruled a suicide. His ex-girlfriend and close associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2022 for trafficking and abusing underage women alongside Epstein.

Throughout his life, Epstein associated with politicians, diplomats, businessmen, and royals, several of whom visited his private Caribbean island.

The newly released documents contain claims that Epstein and his associates participated in occult rituals involving human sacrifice. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced last week that his government would examine whether Polish children were abused as part of Epstein's so-called "satanic circle."

On Thursday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov rejected claims that Epstein may have been a Russian spy as "ludicrous."
