Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has accused President Donald Trump's administration of a "cover-up" over how files related to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein are being handled.

In an interview with the BBC in Berlin, where she attended the annual World Forum, Clinton said: "Bring out the files. They are dragging their feet on purpose."

Her statement comes after the US Department of Justice (DoJ) released millions of pages of new documents related to the Epstein investigation.

The deputy attorney general confirmed that around three million pages have not been made public due to sensitive content, including personal medical materials and evidence that could compromise open investigations.

Call for public testimony

Clinton said that "everyone who is called to testify must testify," also referring to the pressure on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to appear before a US Congressional committee.

Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton have agreed to testify before the House Oversight Committee, after threats to hold them in contempt of Congress. Bill Clinton is scheduled to testify on February 27, while Hillary is scheduled to testify a day earlier. They have requested that the hearing be public and not behind closed doors.

"We have nothing to hide. We have repeatedly requested the full publication of the files. Sunlight is the best disinfectant," she declared.

Trump's reaction

President Trump, who is named in the dossier, has denied any illegal ties to Epstein and told the BBC he has been "exonerated".

"I had nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. They asked for evidence and found otherwise," he said from the board of Air Force One.

The White House stated that the administration has done "more for victims than Democrats ever have," highlighting the release of thousands of pages of documents and cooperation with Congress.

Jeffrey Epstein died in a New York jail on August 10, 2019, while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. He had previously been convicted of exploiting the prostitution of minors.

Neither Hillary nor Bill Clinton have been accused of wrongdoing by Epstein's victims, and both have denied any knowledge of his criminal activities at the time they had contact with him. Trump has also denied any wrongdoing and has not been accused of any crimes by Epstein's victims.

The debate over full transparency of the files continues in Congress, with some lawmakers demanding the release of additional documents and internal Justice Department memos.
