Albert, meanwhile, has been forced into a very public attempt to win back trust.
“When the trust is broken and there are no clear answers to the questions that are asked, decisions have to be made,” Albert told Le Figaro in July.
“The “Dossiers” brought to light, via the internet, certain activities of people who were working with me. As I said: if the trust is broken, it is impossible to continue working together.”
Robert Eringer, who worked for Albert as an intelligence adviser from 2002 to 2007, told The Post that the monarch had tried to convince the public he was ignorant of the corruption, but said that in fact, Albert had been warned.
“He knew all along,” said Eringer. “He knew because I was there and investigating (some of) these guys and I told him.
“I said, ‘It’s ridiculous what’s going on here. You can’t let your old friends from when you were a child rule the roost here. They’re going to run this country into the ground, your legacy is going to be seriously damaged.’ And that’s exactly what has happened. He didn’t stop it.”
