Julian Assange Is No Longer Wanted By Sweden

Sweden has released it's "hold" on Julian Assange.


Assange, 45, took refuge in Ecuador’s embassy in London in 2012 to escape extradition to Sweden to answer questions about sex-crime allegations from two women. He has been there ever since, fearing that if he was in custody he might ultimately be extradited to the United States for his role at the helm of WikiLeaks, which has enraged governments around the world by publishing tens of thousands of leaked classified U.S. documents. https://www.apnews.com/545254661ee0472cac552a76d5c484aa/Rape-probe-dropped-for-WikiLeaks'-Assange;-uncertainty-ahead

 

I have a feeling US extradition is still a major worry

 

Probably so, I would think.

 

I remember wikileaks/Assange announcing months ago that if the US released Chelsea Manning he would leave the embassy and hand himself in to the authorities.

Then Obama pardoned Manning and now she is free.

What happened to that?

edit This is what happened. He broke his pledge.
