Assange Extradition Stalemate, UK Rejection of UN Authority
The British Foreign Office stated that the UN ruling on Julian Assange changes nothing and that he will be arrested if he leaves the Ecuadorian embassy. The UK government maintains it does not recognize the UN convention on political asylum in this context. Legal analysts suggest Assange's best course of action may be to face the Swedish charges and fight potential U.S. extradition in court.
