Ecuador to make decision on Assange asylum request
In the two months since Julian Assange ducked into Ecuador's London embassy to seek political asylum, president Rafael Correa has been consistently deferential to Britain while insisting on his right to protect a free speech advocate facing persecution.
Asked earlier this week if he felt solidarity with the Wikileaks founder, Ecuador's leftist president told a TV interviewer "of course, but we also feel solidarity for England and for the English and international law."
