WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will be questioned shortly at Ecuador's embassy in London, the president of the South American country said Wednesday, according to AP. President Rafael Correa told reporters in Quito that questions submitted by Swedish prosecutors will be asked of Assange by Ecuadorean officials "in the coming days." The questions relate to accusations of sexual assault made by two women. "This is finally going to happen, what could have been done three years ago," Correa said. Assange took refuge in Ecuador's embassy in June 2012 to avoid extradition to Sweden and has been confined there since. He claims the investigation is a pretext and that Sweden would hand him over to the United States. Assange angered U.S. officials by publishing reams of leaked diplomatic cables and sensitive war-related documents.
