Ex-CIA officer Edward Snowden called the Extradition of the founder of Wikileaks Julian Assange in the United States permeated corruption. This was announced in his Twitter after the decision of the London Court.
“Julian Assange is one of the political prisoners who are serving the longest period in the Western world. Each level of business is permeated against it corruption and procedural abuse,” wrote Snowden.
On Friday, December 10, the High Court in London satisfied the request for the appeal of Washington, who tried to challenge the past decision on the extradition of Assange. It was submitted by the judge of the Central Criminal Court of London Vanessa Baraitecer on January 4, 2021. Assange lawyer is going to appeal this verdict.
The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharov “congratulated” the United States on the Day of Human Rights with the words about Assange. According to her, the decision of the London court is shameful. “This is another manifestation of the dented worldview of the Anglo-Saxon Tandem,” the diplomat said.
