Three years since Julian Assange’s arrest from the Ecuador Embassy

The Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance, Federal President Karen Percy

“The charges against Assange are an affront to journalists everywhere and a threat to press freedom. “The US Government must see reason and drop these charges, and the Australian Government should be doing all it can to represent the interests of an Australian citizen.”

Today is the third anniversary of Julian Assange’s arrest. The Biden Administration must drop its charges against him. The scope of the charges imperil any journalist anywhere who writes about the US government.https://t.co/U82eeXIOLV #MEAAmedia #pressfreedom #Assange pic.twitter.com/a2uB4NKeau

Die Schande des Westens: Heute seit drei Jahren im britischen HSG Belmarsh in Isolationshaft. Wie lange wollt ihr #JulianAssange noch quälen? Nicht wer Kriegsverbrechen aufdeckt, sondern wer sie begeht, befiehlt oder vertuscht gehört hinter Gitter! #FreeAssange #FreeAssangeNOW pic.twitter.com/mPVguP0Tjn

Today marks 3 years that Julian Assange has been detained at London’s high-security Belmarsh prison. Three years charged with no crime in the UK, held on remand while the US government pursues his extradition for publishing public interest information. It’s time to #FreeAssange! pic.twitter.com/MoHZIAWmab

Heute vor drei Jahren: Britische Polizisten führen Julian #Assange in Handschellen aus der ecuadorianischen Botschaft in London ab. Seit drei Jahren sitzt Julian Assange im Gefängnis, weil er es gewagt hat, Kriegsverbrechen zu enthüllen. Schluss mit der Folter.

Srecko Horvat, Croatian Philosopher

Today is exactly 3 years since #Assange is imprisoned at Belmarsh Prison in UK for revealing brutal US war crimes. If he is extradited to the US (175 years in prison) it will be a death sentence – and the final nail in the coffin of democracy in the so called West. pic.twitter.com/br1ragfWZs

Today is another landmark in one of the worst miscarriages of justice ever perpetrated by our so-called democracies in the West: Julian Assange has now been in a jail cell at Belmarsh prison in London for three years.#FreeAssange #AssangeCase https://t.co/VdHDdakUD7

Clare Daly, Member of the European parliament

#Assange, whose groundbreaking journalism exposed the big lie of NATO’s “moral wars,” is now 3 years in prison.

NGOs/unions condemn it as persecution; on it grinds.

No case more vividly demonstrates the total hypocrisy of the West on human rights and democracy… #FreeAssange

The US Government condemning Russia or anyone for war crimes while Julian Assange rots away in prison for exposing US war crimes is the hypocrisy of the century. #FreeAssange
