Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is inside the Ecuadorian Embassy in London and has indicated that he will stay there until his application for political asylum in the country has been granted. It will be hard for Sweden to extradite him once political asylum is granted in Ecuardor.
After Wikileaks founder Julian Assange was threatened with extradition to Sweden he chose to seek political asylum in Ecuador.
"Asylum for Assange is almost a fact," screamed the title of the Ecuadorian newspaper El Comercio.
The relationship between Assange and Ecuador began in November 2010 when the then Deputy Foreign Minister Kintto Lucas offered Assange residence in Ecuador.
