Ecuador 'in talks' with Labour over Julian Assange

The Ecuadorean government are reported to have held talks with the Labour Party over the situation of Julian Assange, believing the 2015 election bring a breakthrough.
Ecuadorean diplomats are attempting to strike a deal which would see Assange sent to Sweden, where he faces rape charges, after the election.
They hope Labour will offer assurances that Assange will not be onward-extradited from Sweden to the US, according to the Independent.
