(9,033 posts)He is where he has been for years, in the Ecuadorean embassy in London. Whether his motivation is to avoid a rape charge, or to avoid extradition to the US following arrest on a trumped-up rape charge depends, apparently, on one's opinions about his actions (Wikileaks' release of information from Chelsea Manning).
