“In the coming weeks a date will be established for the proceedings to be held at the Embassy of Ecuador in the United Kingdom,” according to a communique released by Ecuador’s Foreign Ministry, as quoted by Telesur media outlet.

"Under Swedish law, it’s a fundamental procedure. The reason why this hasn’t occurred previously is because of the Swedish prosecutor’s refusal of Ecuador’s invitation. And this is something that should have happened five years ago," [Assange legal team member Melinda] Taylor added, as quoted by Sputnik.

The Ecuadorian authorities say they have been urging Swedish prosecutors to interview Assange since 2012.

In February, the UN ruled that Assange has been the victim of arbitrary detention “by the Governments of Sweden and the United Kingdom.”
