Summary
This document is a chain of emails between Gary Bloxsome (counsel for Prince Andrew/Duke of York) and an Assistant U.S. Attorney from the Southern District of New York in July 2020. The correspondence concerns negotiations for Prince Andrew to provide a voluntary interview to US authorities regarding the Epstein investigation. The US side threatens a compelled interview via MLAT if no voluntary date is set, while the UK side complains about leaks, 'media circus', and seeks strict confidentiality assurances before agreeing to an interview.
