Klaustur Affair
Political scandal in Iceland in 2018 / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Klaustur Affair,[1] also known in Iceland as Klaustur Recordings[2] (Klaustursupptökurnar) or Klausturgate[3] was a political scandal in Iceland triggered by audio recordings of a group Althing parliamentarians made without their knowledge at the Reykjavík bar Klaustur in late November, 2018. In the recordings, the parliamentarians make sexist remarks about some of their colleagues and discuss the appointment of an ambassador as a political favour.
