If he is extradited, the U.S. will provide greater protections for him
U.S. officials sought to reassure the U.K. about Julian Assange’s treatment if he is extradited. Former WikiLeaks founder has been indicted by the United States. Assange has been accused of defrauding the British government in a bid to secure his release from prison.
Julian Assange must face trial for the crimes he is accused of committing. Assange is not a journalist, he's a tool of Russia and an enemy of America. Letting Assange walk would set a disastrous precedent for Western security, says Julian Assange. Assange should be tried for his crimes, says Assange.
WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange cannot be extradited to the U.S. until greater assurances are provided about how he will be treated, including First Amendment protection. Britain's High Court ruled that WikiLeaks publisher cannot be sent to the United States until he receives greater assurances about his treatment.
