Mr Assange faces 18 charges in the US relating to the 2010 release by WikiLeaks of 500,000 secret files detailing aspects of military campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq.
But the judge hearing the case has said it will be at least six weeks before she delivers a verdict - meaning it will come after the US presidential election on 3 November.It is the latest in a series of legal battles faced by Mr Assange since the leaks a decade ago.He was in Britain at the time but dodged an attempt to extradite him to Sweden by claiming political asylum in Ecuador's embassy in London.
Mr Ai, 62, said he had met Mr Assange several times during this period and, although he did not know him well, felt he was being unfairly targeted.
AI weiwei only had to deal with the CCP, Assange is up against the UK/USA
Assange should not be subject to this. No principled human being would allow this.
Absolutely agree with aiww Our definition of democracy dictates our leaders are elected to work for us. Assange is there to keep them honest and should be a free man; in an attempt to show people that democracy is worth fighting for. Otherwise we're losing our democracy.
Let’s not give Assange a free pass if he secretly met with Trumps representatives and then choose to release damaging information sought from Russia agents about his opponent but not to release damaging information about Trump. Free press doesn’t mean choice. Jail Assange!

'Certainly possible': Donald Trump says Amy Coney Barrett could help Supreme Court upend abortion lawsUS President Donald Trump's latest Supreme Court nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, would give the nine-member court six conservative justices - if she is confirmed by the Senate. A return to the 19th century? She chose to have a number of children She should allow other women to choose how many they have. Not allowing abortion is fascist bastardry. Imagine an America where the people selected for the highest court in the country were selected on merit, rather than if they were an ideological warrior that would tip the court their way. Just imagine an America that was actually run intelligently like that. What a utopia.
