This is an agreement that puts an end to a political and judicial process that began fourteen years ago. On the night of June 24 to 25, the official WikiLeaks account announced the release of Julian Assange, its founder. The person concerned, who had been detained in the United Kingdom since 2019, was able to leave the country on a plane.
