Julian Assange to be extradited to US sooner than you think

The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss the extradition of Julian Assange to the United States, which will play out February next year in a London court. Assange, 47, faces 18 counts in the United States, including conspiring to hack government computers and violating espionage law. On 12 June, the UK Home Secretary Sajid Javid certified the request from the US to extradite Julian Assange for allegations of hacking and sharing classified American government documents. By certifying the request, Javid has rubber-stamped the US extradition which can now be considered by the court. Assange will appear via video before Westminster magistrates on Friday.
