‘Enough is enough’: Australia PM Albanese talks to Biden about Julian Assange case ( www.smh.com.au )

Albanese has raised the plight of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in talks this week with United States President Joe Biden, stepping up efforts to find a way to release the Australian from jail.

Assange’s brother, Gabriel Shipton, said Assange should be released because his work at WikiLeaks had been in the public interest. The disclosures included the “collateral murder” video that showed US forces killing civilians in Iraq and the release of a trove of US diplomatic cables.

Shipton said people cared about the issue because it was becoming a sign of the “inequality” in the relationship between Australia and the US.

But this is the crux of it; unfortunately it is an unequal relationship.
