The Kremlin said on Thursday that it did not want to waste time answering questions about unproven suggestions in Western media and by Poland's prime minister that late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein may have been some sort of Russian intelligence asset.


Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Tuesday that Warsaw would launch an investigation into possible links between Epstein and Russia's intelligence services and into any potential impact on Poland.
