- Julian Assange lands in Australia after walking free on Wednesday 26 June from a court on the US Pacific island territory of Saipan after pleading guilty to violating US espionage law, in a deal that allowed him to head straight home.
His release ends a 14-year legal saga in which Mr Assange spent more than five years in a British high-security jail and seven years in asylum at the Ecuadorean embassy in London battling extradition to Sweden on sexual assault allegations and to the US, where he faced 18 criminal charges.

At last he is a free man , God bless .
Free debatable, none of us are free. As every day goby or supposed freedoms are being eroded. Prime example did you were your mask and took your vaxine if so you muzzeled yourself. Shame on you.
Here comes trouble.
Garntee if china did the same to someone that would not be your response
Fantastic endurance shown by a great & noble man. 🎉
Apparently he threw his faeces at people and smeared them all over the room and walls in the embassy... Real noble
@@soaringbird-lf7sh ah, the old chit protest! Long understood as the statement of truth 🤣
They almost killed him. Disgraceful Sweden, USA& UK
Totally agree!
The downfall of the West is inevitable!
DON'T FORGET HIS OWN GOVERNMENT???.
Tbf, it was the US federal legal system that released him.
I think it's obvious why the UK went along with it, but I wonder what Sweden got for its trouble...
My god how beautiful it is to see them kissing, welcome home Julian Assange... May life be sweet, you have some time to catch up on... 💕💕❤❤
Welcome home, our hero! ❤🎉😊
UK preach human right, locked him for decade without any trial.
Thank God.
Happy day around the world. So glad for Mr. Assange!!
God bless Assange.
I am in tears watching him ❤
Oh I cried god bless him
Well done Julian you’re my hero❤
Yeah, what a hero, he's sat in jail for the last 12 years and has achieved absolutely nothing 😂😂..
@@jaysummers9396you're to brainwashed by MSM to realise what he's done
@@jaysummers9396that stupid tattoo on your face haha makes you look even more gay than you you already did
@@jaysummers9396he has caused many people to not vote for the military industrial complex. I would never vote Labour or Conservative in the UK as a result
@@danthelambboy Hahaha, oh really? Do you have any metric to support your claims? And furthermore, what do you think not voting Labour or Conservative is going to achieve, exactly? The government is the government, it doesn't matter what the party is called 🙄 you seem extremely naive to how the human species has operated for thousands of years 😂😂...
Tony Blair was awarded the Knight of the Garter while this champion of freedom rotted in Belmarsh. Let that sink in.
What did Tony Blair do to get a knight hood, I can't think of anything.
That is what we would expect in a realm that is run by Demons.

You are Awesome
Wishing you every Health, Happiness and Luck❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Super gute Nachricht.
Freeeeeeeeeedom
Forget the deal. He showed the world the truth. A living legend👍❤
Our judicial system isn't fit for purpose, its obvious to see it is not independent or a break on the misrule of the state.
Enjoy your freedom & continue to speak the truth. Happiness & good health to you & your family. 🎉
Wishing Mr Assange joy and happiness for the rest of his life. Hope he stops, noone really cares, noone canq do anything so whats the point I sacrificing his life to just get some news out. 🙏 ❤🎉🍻 👏 ✌️
It's A hefty price to pay for those who dare to Speak the truth !!!! Julian A. Is one of them !!! He really deserve to be Free !!!!
"There's a time for everything under the sun--a turn--for every season." King Solomon book Ecclesiastes in Bible. Time physics is Karma, balance. Julian has many friends why? He is a rare, selfless, pure heart I met long ago.
Why on earth was he kept in ( Cat A ) Belmarsh ? ...... He could have just as easily been housed in ( Cat C ) Brixton , doing a spot of gardening to help him spend his days more humanely ... ( ? ) ......... DAVE™🛑
It's all about punishment to avoid anybody else doing what he did.
Flight risk he has got form.
@@user-kv2rz3mw2bgot form of escaping from prison? He’s never been in prison before this!
That prison is full of the worst kind of Islamic im so glad he's free at last
@@JasonEagles-hw4rl you’ve been baited by an idiot
Welldone julian welcome home. You realy are a hero
Awww I had so many tears of happiness!
tears of joy for Julian Assange and his family
Bless this man and his family… keep him and his family safe !
Im very happy for this great man and his family. May god panish those who hold you so long for telling the truth.
This is the day we all dreamt of, it has come true, against all the huge odds.
Prayers/good wishes to Julian, Stella and beautiful boys in their new life - no more separation!
Shame on Sweden, shame on the US and shame on the UK/Theresa May, we curse you for the harm you did to Julian for over a decade, with total impunity.
Julian represents a better world a world i want to be part of.
Hero of the world
hallelujah and amen!
at last he’s free!
Very proud of Stella. ❤
Prayers answered ,thank god he is home .
So happy for you Julian!!! Hero!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Home at last, thank God 🇬🇧
So grateful. Capetown SA
A wonderful day.
Now for a well earned rest with family.
Welcome home Julian...!!! 🎉
What a hero! 😪
🩷 Freiheit & Frieden für Julian 💜 Er ist ein Held für die ganze Welt 🌎 Gottes Schutz und Segen für ihn 💫
Australia should provide him security before CIA come and take him
This people are wicked
WELCOME BACK FREE JULIAN ASSANGE ✌🏼🥳🔴🤗🎁🛣️🆓🍹🍾🥂
Thx❤🎉🎉🎉💚💙🩵🥰😍🌹🌺
I cant believe he got out alive
❤
Julian Assange é a LUZ do nosso planeta terra ❤❤❤❤❤
Soooo HAPPY for him 😁
Something doesn’t feel right about it
Absolutely wonderful news. But his detention as a political prisoner will ever be a dark stain upon human rights in the west - especially shameful for the UK. Now let's see that other innocent whistleblower Edward Snowdon pardoned, and also our own Tommy Robinson freed from the clutches of Canada's thought police...
Three modern-day saints. Three outstanding individuals who have sacrificed their lives for the good of humanity.
Who's paying for all this?
Me, you're welcome.
Just popped in to press a thumb-up
The hero's ❤
14:20 he starts to appear from plane
Welcome home mate ❤
He could have easily disappeared without a trace. Thanks to all these brave journalists , upholders of truth and moral human beings who never let the story go and demanded he be set free. Special thanks to Amy Goodman and Democracy Now, for highlighting his story. When we as human beings hold on to our morality and humanity, we will see truth established in the world...now, free Palestine!
2024 highlight, Welcome home Julian
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m so happy you are free. Please know that the People of the USA are on your side. If President Biden okayed this deal it’s only because it’s an election year. They are trying to get him reelected. Regardless the government is totally messed up. I wish you and your Family much happiness. The truth is always the best. Love to you all.
Julian has impunity now. He should be start his own media company and continue exposing the crimes of leaders world wide.
Sweden is a very odd country. With the immigration stance and this situation
I understand him, but wouldn ´ t even go there. All australians turned back on him. Protect him and his family….
They should be proud of a hero of FREE SPEACH
oh, so the Independent HAS heard of Assange. Wouldnt know it through years of legal battles, imprisonment and US assassination attempts. Still its about the survival of serious journalism and what do they care about that ?
Good news is he able to travel to usa again
He pleaded guilty, after 14 years of saying he was innocent ?
Watch last few minutes
Victorious great man. At last he is Free!!!!!Praise God!!!!!
Did he land at Botany Bay. I see they are still sending them there.
Aussies built the place up well into a modern society and country. With high standard of living. Australia is a much better place to live in these days than the UK than the days when they landed at Botany Bay. I know I would much rather live in Australia with its cleaner air than the UK.
Fast forward to 15:20 to see Julian leaving the plane.
For safe in free 😮
I'd be surprised if this is over. The USA will get him in the end.
why tf did this videos need to be quarter of an hour long?
First stop - Chicko Roll
He should be in prison for leaking illegal government footage
That pilot's lucky he missed Trade Cente One and the Pentagon, otherwise, that [ Would ] have been awkward!!
15:17 to see Julian assange . Skip the crap.
Thank you God 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Tosser
Who recorded this? Somebodies toddler? 😂 KEEP IT STILL
Thought it a bit cheeky him asking For three grand and to go by Rwanda.
Dear boy, 20 million could not compensate for the ordeal ASSANGE has endured. His crime? Humanity and honesty.
About time now lets Free Palestine ✊️
He will write a book about his time in prison and we'll never hear from him again, thank god...
15:19
Thank you President Biden 🙏
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We should have let him out years ago, right outside the American embassy. The UK tax payer has paid a fortune on this nonsense, someone should be paying us back. Outright criminal; everyone seems to forget the other thing he was chanrged with in Sweden.
Now bring the true criminals to the court, Blair and Bush.
He exposed the blatant criminal negligence of Blair and Bush. The Swedish case was dismissed.
He should sue the British government for wrongful imprisonment.
You are better than this, surely?
The thing in Sweden was fake to make him look bad. Feel better soon.
What was outright criminal is that Assange in his attempt to uncover abuses and corruption, was jailed. I’d hazard a guess that the charges in Sweden were trumped up to smear his name just to divert everyone’s attention from the military secrets he released.
Ha, like the UK isn't complicite in being America 's stooge. Cry me a river.
Shame on you, that was a set up.
Anyone with brains where you have a hollow space, knows that
الله أكبر
Almighty God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ; His justice will prevail😂
A superhero in every sense. About time.🙏🏽🤍🫡
