US says Assange will be safe there, but activists want the case dropped

RT published this video item, entitled “US says Assange will be safe there, but activists want the case dropped” – below is their description.

A recent statement by the US State Department suggests the persecution of Julian Assange is in line with human rights standards – despite the Wikileaks co-founder’s extradition to the US being blocked on those very same human rights grounds back in January this year. RT hears from former CIA officer Ray McGovern on the issue.
