Trump Clears Path for Julian Assange to Leave London

I think the MSM misspoke,,,,, as usual they didn't have their facts straight and their editors are not doing their jobs.
You're right, he is not a Citizen of the US and would have to be Extradited.
Quote:Legal experts say the British authorities' desire to arrest Assange for breaching his bail agreement is dubious. Nikolaos Gazeas, an expert for international criminal law, told DW that such infractions were generally at the bottom end of the criminal liability scale. He went on to say that a warrant for Assange's arrest was unreasonable in light of the extremity of his situation.

Is the truth of the matter rather that Assange is to be arrested so that he can be extradited to the USA? Several US media outlets have reported that the US Attorney General's Office is already working on a document that will charge him and other WikiLeaks founders with conspiracy, theft of government documents and breaking espionage laws.
To date, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) has not confirmed the stories, but it has not denied them either. US Attorney General Jeff Sessions himself declared that Assange's arrest and the fight against the leaking of state secrets would be a "priority" for the US government.

I think President Trump actually had the DOJ (Sessions) back off on his idea to Extradite Mr. Assange. JMHO
