Julian Assange: Why Ecuador is offering asylum

The Ecuadorean government said it had granted Mr Assange asylum because it shared his fears of political persecution and the possible consequences of an eventual extradition to the United States.

5 Reasons Why Ecuador Granted Asylum to Julian Assange

Ecuador has made a pretty clear cut case to back up its support for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. The small South American nation of Ecuador may look like it’s punching above its weight by taking on Europe and the U.K. to defend Assange, but its rationale is well grounded in international law.

In August 2012, Ecuador's Foreign Ministry released a document explaining in detail why the government granted Assange asylum, arguing the WikiLeaks founder had been abandoned by his home country and could face political persecution.

An English translation of the Ecuadorean Foreign Ministry's original statement can be found here. The general gist of the document can be summarized in five key points, covering Assange's past treatment and Ecuador's fears for his future.
