"Latest Developments in Julian Assange's US Extradition Case"

Julian Assange's US extradition hearing in London concluded, with a decision not expected until at least next month. The US seeks to have Assange face espionage charges for publishing classified US military documents 14 years ago, while his defense argues that he exposed criminality on an unprecedented scale. The judges overseeing the case will take time to come to a verdict, and if he loses this appeal, Assange's only remaining option would be at the European Court of Human Rights. His supporters fear he could be flown to the US before that happens, as the British government has already signed an extradition order.
