During this period, one of Epstein's clients was the Saudi Arabian businessman Adnan Khashoggi, who was the middleman in transferring American weapons from Israel to Iran as part of the Iran–Contra affair in the 1980s.[7] Khashoggi was one of several defense contractors that he knew.[31][55] In the mid-1980s, Epstein traveled multiple times between the United States, Europe, and the Middle East.[56][57] While in London, Epstein met Steven Hoffenberg. They had been introduced through Douglas Leese, a defense contractor, and John Mitchell, the former U.S. Attorney General.[31]
