JULIAN ASSANGE WON TODAY https://i.nostr.build/5GmkB.jpg
He won today but the fight against the US still continues. #FreeAssangeNOW
I agree but at least he isn't sent off to the US yet and has in theory a chance to be free. Do I have any hopes for it, not a whole lot.

Yeah, it seems like this case now relies on the US providing required "assurances" for 4, 5 and 6. If not, Assange will be able to appeal the extradition.
Yes, although a small win, today was still a win. The process is definitely the punishment. Assange has been tortured by the US and UK for 12 years straight now so there is not much of a win left in the grand scheme of things. That said, It's most definitely a win if he is freed and not killed.
They are indeed
Any reasonable non-corrupt human being wouldn't trust "assurances" from the US
Maybe not even "a battle", just the second period of the existing battle. Now the third period will decide if there will be a new battle or not.
Not at all, back to the 23 hour a day cell in Belmarsh prison for two more months until the court makes it's final decision on May 20th.
Albeit a small win, of course this is still a win. He is not kidnapped onto an American plane today. A final proper win however would be that the US drops all charges and the UK makes Assange a free man.

It's a delay. The US have got until May 20th to provide assurances to the uk court that they will not introduce the death sentence & a couple of other issues. If they don't he can appeal to European court. Stella not happy. Calling for Biden to drop the case. Not provide 'assurances'. Still more to go but this is a definite step in a better direction.
