US President Biden ‘considering’ dropping Assange charges

United States President Joe Biden says he is “considering” a request from Australia to drop the prosecution of Julian Assange.

The WikiLeaks founder has been indicted on 17 espionage charges and one charge of computer misuse over his website’s publication of classified U.S. documents relating to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars almost 15 years ago.

The Australian national was taken to Belmarsh prison in London five years ago, after being dragged out of the Ecuadorian embassy, where he stayed while fighting against being taken to the US.

U.S. Slams ICC's War Crimes Charges Against Israel; Biden Calls Actions "Outrageous"| WATCH

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC's charges against the Israeli leaders, including crimes against humanity and war crimes, have sparked a wave of criticism from Israel and the U.S., with both sides rejecting the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's move follows Senate threats of sanctions against the court, adding further diplomatic tension. #ICC #Israel #Netanyahu #WarCrimes #Biden #Pentagon #USPolicy #InternationalLaw #Hamas #IsraelDefense #ICCJurisdiction #InternationalNews #InternationalRelations #Oneindia #OneindiaNews ~HT.318~PR.362~ED.101~GR.344~
