Jeffrey Epstein Aided Israel in Selling Surveillance Technology to Côte d’Ivoire
Leaked emails reveal the negotiations between Côte d’Ivoire and Israel, led by Ehud Barak and Jeffrey Epstein. Both Epstein and Barak were deeply involved in profiting from war. After finishing his role as Israel’s defense minister and supposedly retiring, Barak took on the role of promoting Israeli security services to governments facing conflict. This allowed Israeli intelligence to influence the security systems of several African countries, including Côte d’Ivoire.
Epstein’s Quiet Role
Jeffrey Epstein, who died in jail in 2019, played a discreet but significant role in facilitating these transactions. In correspondence with Barak, Epstein remarked on the chaotic situation in Côte d’Ivoire:
“With civil unrest exploding [...] and the desperation of those in power, isn’t this perfect for you.”
Barak responded cautiously:
“You’re right [in] a way. But not simple to transform it into a cash flow.”
Turning Unrest into Business
For Côte d’Ivoire, converting instability into financial gain meant negotiating security deals between the Israeli government and the nation. New information about Epstein’s involvement in Israeli intelligence activities across Africa comes from two major sources:
- An archive of leaked emails published by the Handala hacking group and hosted by the whistleblower platform Distributed Denial of Secrets
- Documents released last month by the U.S. House Oversight Committee
Summary
These revelations highlight how Epstein and Barak capitalized on conflict to expand Israeli surveillance influence in Africa, shaping security frameworks in vulnerable states like Côte d’Ivoire.
