Lawrence Krauss is invited to give a lecture in Germany on October 19th after an earlier invitation was canceled. He is discussing options for the cost of his ticket and asking if Jeffrey E. might be flying to Europe around that time and could take him as a hitchhiker. Jakob Kollhofer, who has limited flexibility due to budget constraints and limitations, offers Lawrence Krauss 5k as a lump sum, which is the ultimate at the moment.

Terje Rod-Larsen sent an email on May 27, 2017, to Jeffrey Epstein regarding a US-Saudi arms deal and the Blackstone Infrastructure Fund. The email mentioned that Richard John Nawrot had removed the defense part related to the $110 billion arms deal but highlighted a separate deal done with Blackstone to establish a fund for US infrastructure. The US President, Donald Trump, announced a $100 billion arms package during his first foreign trip to Saudi Arabia, which was aimed at combating terrorism in the region and countering threats from Iran. US defense companies, such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing, benefited from the deal with Saudi Arabia, while the kingdom's sovereign wealth fund also invested in a new Blackstone fund for US infrastructure.
