Eric revealed these interests in an interview with the Financial Times, stating that politics would be a natural step for the family and “an easy one.”
“The real question is, ‘Do you want to drag other members of your family into it?’” Eric said in the interview.
“If the answer was yes, I think the political path would be an easy one, meaning I think I could do it. And by the way, I think other members of our family could do it too.”
