Ecuador presidents says country have spoken to UK about Assange

Communication has started regarding Wikileaks founder Julian Assange

He is living in the Ecuadorean embassy in London, President Lenin Moreno.

Speculation about Assange’s future has grown after the Sunday Times newspaper reported senior officials from Ecuador and Britain were now in discussion about how to remove him from the embassy after revocation of his asylum, and a source close to him told Reuters the situation was coming to a head.

Australian-born Assange will eventually need to leave the embassy where he has been living since 2012, Moreno said at an event in Madrid.
