Former Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis on his meeting with Assange.

"The other day I visited Julian in Belmarsh prison. This is Britain's Guantanamo Bay. He spends 23 hours a day there, for three and a half years, in solitary confinement. In this way they do not want to break him, but to kill him. It's a slow kill...

He hopes that if we manage to rescue him, he will be able to recover. And this is our duty. ...Because he is dying for your right to know what your government is doing on your behalf, behind your back."
