There's a lot of misconceptions and straight out lies flying around regarding this case, you shouldn't believe the conspiracy theorists. He's not charged for having sex without a condom either.
If he were to be extradited to Sweden from the UK, and if the US wants him extradited from Sweden, the UK would have to give their permission to do so. Sweden would simply be an extra complication and wouldn't help any extradition claim the US might have.

- jonlucc 10y agoSo if the US wanted him, they could file the appropriate charges and just ask the UK to extradite him here instead of Sweden? Then what? He leaves the embassy and how does the UK decide where to send him first?
- gsnedders 10y agoI think it's reasonable to assume he wouldn't leave the embassy, given his entire stated reason to be there is to avoid extradition to the US. Which place he gets sent comes down to the decision of someone, likely the Home Secretary, but my memory of this is fuzzy and it could be down to the judiciary.
