Pretty great stuff. They're really just encouraging him tho, trying to take away Internet is like trying to keep your car completely dry. You'll never stop working at it and you'll lose anyway.

Or "I didn't really have anything that substantial, so I'm going to fake not having internet access so people get worked up and ignore the fact that I didn't drop a bomb shell."

Ecuador concedió asilo político a Julian Assange en 2012 sobre la base de sus legítimos temores de persecución política, debido a sus actividades periodísticas como editor de WikiLeaks.

Durante las últimas semanas, WikiLeaks ha publicado una gran cantidad de documentos que tienen un impacto sobre la campaña electoral en Estados Unidos. La decisión de hacer pública dicha información es exclusiva responsabilidad de la organización Wikileaks.

El Gobierno del Ecuador respeta el principio de no intervención en los asuntos de otros países, no se inmiscuye en procesos electorales en curso ni apoya a un candidato en especial.

En ese sentido, Ecuador, en ejercicio de su derecho soberano, ha restringido temporalmente el acceso a parte de su sistema de comunicaciones en su Embajada en el Reino Unido.

Esta restricción temporal no impide que la organización WikiLeaks lleve a cabo sus actividades periodísticas.

Ecuador, consecuente con su tradición de defensa de los Derechos Humanos, especialmente con las personas víctimas de persecución política, reafirma el asilo concedido a Julian Assange y reitera su intención de salvaguardar su vida e integridad física hasta que pueda movilizarse a un lugar seguro.

La política exterior del Ecuador responde exclusivamente a decisiones soberanas y no cede ante presiones de otros Estados.


From the Ecuadorian government.

Ecuador granted political asylum to Julian Assange in 2012 on the basis of their legitimate fears of political persecution because of his journalistic activities as editor of WikiLeaks.

In recent weeks, WikiLeaks has published a large number of documents which have an impact on the election campaign in the United States. The decision to make public such information is the sole responsibility of the Wikileaks organization.

The Government of Ecuador respects the principle of non-intervention in the affairs of other countries, it does not interfere in electoral processes in progress or support a candidate in particular.

In that sense, Ecuador, in exercise of its sovereign right, has temporarily restricted access to part of its communications system in its embassy in the UK.

This temporary restriction does not prevent the WikiLeaks organization to carry out his journalistic activities.

Ecuador, consistent with its tradition of defending human rights, especially with the victims of political persecution reaffirms granted asylum to Julian Assange and reiterates its intention to safeguard their lives and physical integrity until you can move to a safe place.

Ecuador's foreign policy responds only to sovereign decisions and not yield to pressure from other states.


Tl;dr:

Ecuador is pretty neat and respects the US rights to non-interventionism in their elections.

I like how Julian had to run to the banana republic for "fair treatment". My god, next he'll be in the Sudan.
