A pivotal decision regarding the potential extradition of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange to the United States is expected on Monday, marking the culmination of a 13-year legal battle.

Two judges at the High Court in London will determine whether assurances provided by the U.S. government regarding Assange’s rights are sufficient.

His legal team anticipates various outcomes, including extradition, release from jail, or further legal proceedings.

Assange’s wife, Stella, expressed uncertainty about the outcome, noting that anything could happen.

The case revolves around WikiLeaks’ release of classified U.S. military documents and a video depicting a 2007 helicopter attack in Iraq, NBC News has reported.

The U.S. seeks to prosecute Assange on multiple charges, primarily under the Espionage Act, alleging harm to national security.

Supporters view the prosecution as an attack on journalism and free speech, while calls for dropping the case have come from various quarters, including human rights groups and political leaders.
