Ecuador says to talk with Britain on Assange on June 17
Ecuadorean Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino said on Monday he would meet Britain's Foreign Secretary William Hague this month to discuss a possible solution to the year-long diplomatic standoff over WikiLeaks' founder Julian Assange.
Assange, 41, took refuge in Ecuador's tiny embassy in London last June to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning over sex assault and rape allegations. He denies the allegations.
"On June 17, one year after Assange entered the Ecuadorean embassy in London, I will meet again with secretary William Hague in that city," Patino said on his Twitter account.
"We expect the meeting with the secretary ... will lead to a solution in the case of Assange's asylum."

I think the proposed solution will be for Assange to be extradited to Sweden with no formal assurance that he won't be sent to the US.
Guess we'll see in 2 weeks.
