London’s High Court has ruled WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange can’t be immediately extradited to the US. He will be granted a new appeal if US authorities do not provide assurances that he will not face the death penalty if extradited. His wife Stella Assange spoke outside the court on March 26, 2024.

00:00 The courts recognize that Julian is exposed to a flagrant denial of his freedom of expression rights,
00:12 that he is being discriminated against on the basis of his nationality, an Australian,
