Australian lawmakers met with U.S. Ambassador Caroline Kennedy and urged her to help drop the U.S. prosecution against Julian Assange for publishing classified documents.
Assange is in the midst of a legal battle over his potential extradition to the U.S. over Wikileaks' 2010 publication of top secret cables detailing war crimes committed by the U.S. government in the Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, detention camp, Iraq and Afghanistan. The materials leaked to him by a whistleblower also expose instances of the CIA engaging in torture and rendition.
Last month marked 13 years since Wikileaks published a video showing the U.S. military gunning down civilians in Iraq, including two Reuters journalists.
