Justice for Sweden
Whatever one’s sentiments about Julian Assange, Sweden is a state governed by the rule of law in every sense. Unfortunately, Assange and his supporters have propagated a very different image of the Swedish legal system, which many now view, entirely without basis, as a wilderness of injustice and political corruption.

STOCKHOLM – Julian Assange’s bizarre bid for political asylum in Ecuador’s embassy in London has claimed headlines everywhere, but it has obscured an important truth: last month’s decision by the United Kingdom’s Supreme Court that Assange should be extradited to Sweden to face allegations of sexual crimes was the only possible outcome. The alternative – to reject the European Arrest Warrant issued by Swedish authorities – would have signaled distrust of Sweden’s legal system, which would have been unfair.
