Assange will not be able to attend the trial in Britain due to poor health. The High Court in London begins two days of hearings on February 20.

The court will determine whether Assange will have the opportunity to continue to challenge the decision to extradite him to the United States, which was made in June 2022. Reporters Without Borders called on US authorities to end the 13-year persecution of the WikiLeaks founder. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is not feeling well and for this reason will not attend the hearing in the British extradition court.
