Australia Solution looms in the long tug-of-war over Wikileaks founder Assange

In the years-long legal wrangling over Wikileaks founder Julian Assange's extradition from the UK to the US, a surprising solution is emerging. Assange reached an agreement with the US Department of Justice, according to which he will plead guilty in part to the espionage scandal and in return will be spared further imprisonment in the US, according to court documents published on Monday evening (local time). However, a court still has to approve the agreement.
