Assange fears that Ecuador will expel him from his embassy

A rumor sparked alarms inside and outside the Ecuadorian embbady in London to indicate that Julian Assange was going to be expelled from it. The information was published by the WikiLeaks page, created by Assange himself, and revealed that the exit of the building was imminent.

"A high-level source within the Ecuadorian state, headed by President Lenin Moreno, said that he would be deported under the pretext of the INA paper scandal and that there already existed an agreement with the UK for his arrest, "they wrote in a statement official accounts.

The documents to which they refer -INA- concern a leak from them where Lenín Moreno was linked to the acquisition of goods through offshore companies. This led him to reproach Assange and to reproach him for having violated the agreement that gave him political asylum in the embbady since 2012. Despite the short circuit between parties, the Ecuadorian government explained that it was not planned to deport him. "We will not comment on current and insulting unfounded rumors, but Ecuador is making decisions in a sovereign and independent manner vis-à-vis other countries," said Foreign Minister José Valencia. "The question has not been discussed yet."

Whatever the case, the manager took the opportunity to send a message to Assange to show him the discontent that exists. "The diplomatic asylum is a sovereign power of a state, which has the right to grant or withdraw it unilaterally when it deems it justified."

Worry This is not the first confrontation between the creator of Wikileaks and the current Ecuadorian government. As explained by Valencia, they repeatedly stressed that their actions could break the agreement they reached. "Too often, they have committed violations," he told reporters. As a result, the United Nations decided to intervene to prevent a definitive break in the relationship. "If he was expelled from the Embbady of Ecuador, he would probably be arrested by the British authorities and extradited to the US We are currently preparing a formal request to the Governments of Ecuador and from the United Kingdom to make a visit and meet with the competent authorities of both countries to badess the situation and the risks to which Assange is exposed in the light of the events: universal and absolute prohibition of torture and other penalties or treatment cruel, inhuman or degrading, "said Nils Melzer of the UN.

From the UK, it was announced that he would go to the meeting but would maintain his position of imprisoning Assange when he was leaving the embbady. The Swede has a complaint of abuse and rape in his country. Until now, the prosecution has filed cases against him for prescription and lack of evidence. However, the United Kingdom specifies that he is also accused of having violated their parole and that for them the crime remains in force. The Ecuadorian government would also participate in the meeting but relations with Assange are not good. This week, Lenin Moreno accused him of hacking his phone to obtain clbadified information and badured them that they would not tolerate this type of action.
