About time!
He should have never been arrested, detained, and finally imprisoned, thanks to the disgraceful British Government and authorities in Britain which fully cooperated with the US demands.
Not to forget, shame on Sweden for trying their best to bring fabricated charges against him on grounds of alleged rape, alleged sexual molestation, alleged unlawful coercion.
A political and ideological persecution of one person who has exposed the US for its wrongdoings. Bravo to Julian Assagne and his colleagues!
Quote:Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, agreed to plead guilty on Monday to a single felony count of illegally disseminating national security material in exchange for his release from a British prison, ending his long and bitter standoff with the United States.
Mr. Assange, 52, was granted his request to appear before a federal judge at one of the more remote outposts of the federal judiciary, the courthouse in Saipan, the capital of the Northern Mariana Islands, according to a court filing made public late Monday. It was a fitting twist in the case against Mr. Assange, who doggedly opposed extradition to the U.S. mainland.
Barring last-minute snags, the deal would bring to an end a prolonged battle that began after Mr. Assange became alternately celebrated and reviled for revealing state secrets in the 2010s.
