WikiLeaks set to publish more files

THE online whistle-blower WikiLeaks said it will continue to publish more secret files from governments around the world despite US demands to cancel plans to release classified military documents.

“I can assure you that we will keep publishing documents – that’s what we do,” a WikiLeaks spokesman, who says he goes by the name Daniel Schmitt in order to protect his identity, told The Associated Press in an interview yesterday.

Schmitt said he could not comment on specific documents but asserted the publication of classified documents about the Afghanistan war directly contributed to the public’s understanding of the conflict.
