Following the arrest of Julian Assange, Hillary Clinton said the Wikileaks founder 'has to answer for what he has done.'
By Lindsey Bever Lindsey Bever General assignment reporter covering national and breaking news Email Bio Follow April 12 at 7:59 AM The moderator wondered whether Hillary Clinton might have thoughts on Julian Assange’s arrest — noting that Clinton has “some familiarity” with the WikiLeaks founder’s work.
Following Assange’s arrest in London on an unrelated U.S. hacking charge, Clinton said that he should be held responsible. Then she joked: “I do think it’s a little ironic that he may be the only foreigner that this administration would welcome to the United States.” Nearly seven years after the Ecuadoran government agreed to take in Assange, who was facing a rape investigation in Sweden in 2012, it suspended his citizenship and expelled him Thursday from its embassy in London. He was taken into custody after allegedly conspiring to commit computer crimes.
