Former Prince Andrew is facing fresh accusations of sharing an official Treasury document with a business contact, according to reports published in The Telegraph. Meanwhile, in Canada, Prime Minister Mark Carney paid tribute to victims of a recent mass shooting, and former British ambassador Peter Mandelson has been asked to cooperate with a US congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. Additionally, the Danish Prime Minister met with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to discuss the future of Greenland.
The allegations against Prince Andrew stem from emails suggesting he shared a Treasury briefing on Icelandic banking problems with Jonathan Rowland, a business associate. This information, according to BBC Business, was requested by Andrew in 2010. The briefing was then shared with Rowland, whose father, David Rowland, took over part of a failing Icelandic bank. This new claim adds to the scrutiny surrounding the former prince's use of his public role.
In Tumbler Ridge, Canada, Prime Minister Mark Carney joined the opposition leader in paying tribute to victims of a recent school shooting.

The community is grappling with grief and seeking unity in the wake of the tragedy.
Peter Mandelson, the former British ambassador to Washington, has been requested to submit to an interview as part of a US congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. Al Jazeera reported that Democratic Representatives Robert Garcia and Suhas Subramanyam, members of the House Oversight Committee, sent a letter to Mandelson, stating that he possessed extensive knowledge of Epstein.
