Amnesty: "Sweden should issue assurance it won’t extradite Assange to USA"
Which is, I believe, is identical to Assange's stance.

- toyg 13y agoNote the date: 27 September. It took them 3 months to get their head out of their arse, and only after they bled supporters. In June and July, their tone was very different, more akin to what their Swedish branch is still saying: http://www.thelocal.se/43510/20120928/ http://www.thelocal.se/43510/20120928/ EDIT: see for example: http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/08/16/human-rights-watch-amnesty-assange-ecuador_n_1789681.html http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/08/16/human-rights-watc...
- Amadou 13y agoStill they deserve credit for coming around. Better that they do that then stick to a wrong position. Criticize them when they do the wrong thing, but not when they do the right thing.
- anigbrowl 13y agoThe US hasn't issued a warrant for Assange's arrest, so it's kind of BS to demand that Sweden issue such an assurance.
