Last Thursday, two Australian government officials visited Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian embassy in London.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, this is the first time Australian consular officials visited Assange at the embassy.
Assange’s lawyer, Jennifer Robinson, who accompanied the officials said: “Julian Assange is in a very serious situation. He remains in the embassy because of the risk of extradition to the US.”
Due to the “delicate diplomatic situation,” Robinson could not disclose what was discussed at the meeting, according to Fairfax.
