I am describing how it works today, not how I wish it to be. Assange made mistakes but he should not have disappeared into the UK prison system because a corrupt banana republic (Ecuador) elected a new leader. Austria should not have forced landing of a plane with Evo Morales onboard just to hunt Assange, yet Austria did. No country will protect you (he was not offered asylum in or other "democracies"). The left wing media (Guardian & Co) failed to support him.
No matter which country you look at if you intend to upset their power structure (or the structure of a powerful ally that you want to appease), you will not have rights. Even more so when you're not a citizen of that country.
