Is Hamid Karzai in the Epstein files?

Yes, Hamid Karzai appears 20 times across 10 documents. However, his presence is limited to conference attendee lists (likely from Epstein's 2010 St. Thomas scientific conference) and U.S. government policy documents about Afghanistan. There is no evidence of personal correspondence or direct relationship with Epstein.

Did Hamid Karzai attend Jeffrey Epstein's events?

Documents show Karzai listed among attendees for what appears to be Epstein's March 2010 conference in St. Thomas, which brought together world leaders, scientists including Stephen Hawking, and dignitaries. The documents list him alongside Bill Clinton, Nicolas Sarkozy, Prince Andrew, and Tim Geithner. However, these appear to be invitation or guest lists, and it's unclear whether Karzai actually attended.

Why is Hamid Karzai mentioned in documents about Jeffrey Epstein?

Karzai appears in two types of documents: conference materials from Epstein's high-profile gatherings of world leaders and scientists, and U.S. government policy documents analyzing Afghanistan strategy that happened to be included in the document collection. The policy documents discuss his government's challenges and don't relate to Epstein personally—they appear to be general government records.

What was the context of Hamid Karzai's connection to these documents?

As Afghanistan's president from 2001-2014, Karzai was a prominent international figure during the period when Epstein hosted conferences with world leaders. The documents show him listed for Epstein's 2010 scientific conference, which also included Nobel laureates and heads of state. The remaining mentions are from U.S. government assessments of Afghanistan policy from 2009-2011, discussing corruption concerns and Taliban negotiations.

Hamid Karzai, former President of Afghanistan (2001-2014), appears 20 times across 10 documents in the Epstein files. His mentions are exclusively from conference/event materials listing high-profile attendees, and policy documents discussing Afghanistan.

Karzai appears in two distinct contexts: First, in what appear to be guest lists or event materials (likely from Jeffrey Epstein's 2010 St. Thomas conference) alongside other world leaders like Nicolas Sarkozy, Bill Clinton, and Prince Andrew. These documents list him as "President Hamid Karzai" among dignitaries in politics, business, and international relations. Second, he appears in U.S. government policy documents analyzing Afghanistan strategy, discussing his government's corruption issues and the challenges facing American counterinsurgency efforts. There is no evidence in these snippets of direct personal interaction between Karzai and Epstein.
