The Times has learned about the evasion of ex-Prince Andrew from testifying in the Epstein case

The brother of King Charles III of Great Britain, the former Prince Andrew, ignored a call from the US Congress to testify about his ties to financier Jeffrey Epstein. This was reported on November 20 by The Times newspaper, citing sources.

Andrew ignored an invitation to talk to Congress about his ties to <...> Epstein," the article says.

According to the newspaper, the deadline for a response was set for November 20, but Andrew did not respond to the congressional request. It is noted that Andrew is not a US citizen, and therefore the House of Representatives cannot send him an official summons.

At the same time, Suhas Subrahmanyam, a member of the House of Representatives, one of the 13 congressmen who signed the letter to Andrew, expressed the hope that the prince's entourage would voluntarily provide the necessary information about Epstein.
