UK: "Three years too long" - Assange remains in Ecuador's Embassy

Around a dozen protesters demonstrated outside of Ecuadorian Embassy in London on Friday, three years since WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange sought political asylum inside. Protesters held placards with slogans such as "Sun for Assange," "Free Assange Now" and "3 Years 2 Long." Assange was due to meet with Sweden's Deputy Prosecutor Ingrid Isgren and be quizzed over allegations of rape, sexual molestation and illegal coercion, but the meeting was cancelled on Wednesday because Ecuadorian officials did not grant permission for prosecutors to enter the embassy. Some reports indicate that Isgren remains in London, but Assange purportedly said that Ecuador's decision making process could take weeks. Assange recently spoke about the release of 17 secret documents during a video conference in the European Parliament in Brussels, on Thursday June, 4. The documents are related to the ongoing TiSA (Trade in Services Agreement) negotiations by online whistle-blower groups and a massive trade agreement between the US, Europe and various multinationals involving 75 percent of the European economy.
