Ecuador's warning to Assange
This refers to the report, “Stop using embassy to ridicule politicians” (Sept.1). One tends to agree with the prime minister of Ecuador. Assange has rightly been chastised by Ecuador authorities. Assange should be more careful in his conduct, lest he loses the goodwill of Ecuador and is asked to vacate the embassy. Before ridiculing Australian politicians, Assange should make rules for transparency in running his WikiLeaks party. Earlier also, Assange wanted to hog the limelight in Snowden affair for arranging his asylum in Russia. Snowden seemed to have already made his arrangement for asylum in Russia when media reports said that he was in Russian embassy in Hong Kong and a deal seemed to have been struck to grant him asylum in Russia. One more miscalculation by Assange; it will not be a surprise when he is asked to vacate Ecuador embassy.
