Mitchell's name has been removed from the U.S.-Ireland Alliance's scholarship program after fresh Justice Department records exposed his prior ties to Jeffrey Epstein. 尽管米切尔的不端犯罪行为没有得到证实,但董事会一致决定,由于最近披露的信息,包括米切尔的助手和Epstein之间的电子邮件,必须作出这一改变。 Despite the fact that Mitchell's criminal misconduct has not been proven, the board unanimously determined that the change was required due to recently revealed information, including emails between Mitchell's aides and Epstein. 2000年为表彰米切尔在《耶稣受难日协定》中的作用而设立的奖学金自2024年3月以来一直被暂停,而该组织则在筹集资金。 The scholarship, established in 2000 to honor Mitchell’s role in the Good Friday Agreement, has been paused since March 2024 while the organization raises funds. 该方案的促进加强跨大西洋联系的目标将保持不变,但接受者现在将被称为美国-爱尔兰联盟学者。 The program's goal of fostering stronger transatlantic ties will remain the same, but recipients will now be referred to as U.S.-Ireland Alliance Scholars. Mitchell先前曾对协会表示遗憾,但他否认知道Epstein的罪行。 Mitchell has previously expressed regret over the association, but he has denied knowing anything about Epstein's crimes.
