#FreeAssange: Sign to urge UK Home Secretary Priti Patel to reject Julian Assange’s extradition to the United States!
This is an extremely worrying moment for Julian Assange and your support is essential! At a hearing yesterday, a British court ruled that he can be extradited to the United States. As a result of this decision, the case has been referred back to UK Home Secretary Priti Patel, who could approve or reject the US government’s extradition request any time after 18 May.
We have only 4 weeks to take action. We must act quickly before it’s too late! Join RSF in defending Julian Assange by signing this petition expressing your strong opposition to his extradition.
After years of judicial wrangling, an alarming new step has been reached in WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange’s case. If extradited to the United States, he is facing up to 175 years in prison for publishing hundreds of thousands of leaked classified files exposing war crimes and human rights violations (including cases of torture, abductions and enforced disappearances).
We need you to sign the petition before the 18 May deadline and share it as widely as possible using the #FreeAssange hashtag. We are counting on you!
Thank you in advance for your support. It’s very important.
