According to the Jeffrey Epstein files, the American financier tracked which young models were emerging in Belarus, helped them get to the US and France, gave life advice, and received resumes of Belarusian models with photos and videos. This is reported by Radio Liberty.
The published files of Jeffrey Epstein, convicted in 2008 for procuring a child for prostitution and re-arrested in 2019, contain correspondence from 2013 with the Minsk modeling "Studio Tamara." It was conducted with the French agency Mademoiselle Agency.
"Studio Tamara" has been operating since 1993 and has been managed since its creation by Tamara Hancharova. Graduates of this studio at various times have included, for example, the winner of the "Miss Belarus – 2016" contest, Palina Baradachova, as well as Palina Shuba, a longtime companion of Alyaksandr Lukashenka at various events and a presenter on Belarusian state television.
