Kirill Dmitriev has weighed in on scandals surrounding the UK PM and King Charles III’s brother Andrew
Kirill Dmitriev, aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin, has slammed UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and former Prince Andrew over scandals involving both the British government and royal family, including allegations linking them to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
In a post on X on Monday, Dmitriev wrote: “Britons deserve better than Prince Andrew & Starmer.”
Separately, Dmitriev called on Starmer to step down, citing reports he let child sex offenders avoid charges while heading the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
“Starmer has to go,” Dmitriev wrote on X.
Starmer led the CPS from 2008-2013, and his record during that period has been heavily criticized due to the grooming gangs scandal involving groups of mostly foreign-origin men sexually exploiting children. The scandal first drew attention in the early 2010s, but Starmer’s government only launched a formal probe in mid-2025, though he repeatedly claimed he had improved CPS handling of such cases during his time there.
However, new reports by the Express and GB News released on Monday claim that while at the CPS, Starmer helped draft and roll out a system where suspected child sex offenders received “warning notices” instead of prosecution.
