Turning to the UK. British police have arrested the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, on a US extradition request. CGTN's Juliet Mann reports from outside the Ecuadorian embassy in London where the dramatic scene took place and Giles Gibson is in Washington to explain what US authorities have indicted Assange on.

JULIET MANN LONDON "This is the Ecuadorian embassy in London, home to Julian Assange for six years and ten months until the government in Quito terminated his diplomatic asylum. British police were invited in to arrest him. Assange was dragged out of this door in handcuffs and taken away in a police van ahead of a court appearance."

EZRA SCHWALGER-JACKSON ASSANGE SUPPORTER "I think most of us, we are just worried for Julian. We are worried what's going to happen to him next."

KYLE FARREN ASSANGE SUPPORTER "I support Julian Assange because he has given me a very accurate picture of how the west works and the world, including my own country Britain. I support him because I believe in values like free speech and the free press and I think he embodies that."

JULIET MANN LONDON "The Ecuadorian president Lenin Moreno said Assange had displayed discourteous and aggressive behaviour. Moreno said he had blocked security cameras and mistreated guards. Almost seven years is a long time to be restricted to moving around a handful of rooms and this is the balcony where Assange would occasionally take air and address his supporters. Several doctors expressed concern about his physical and mental health earlier this year."

Judge Michael Snow said Assange had shown 'the behaviour of a narcissist who cannot get beyond his own selfish interest'.

He now faces extradition to the US and possibly five years in jail.
