Hillary Clinton should quit as Secretary of State: WikiLeaks founder

LONDON - WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange believes that US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton should resign if it is proved that she was responsible for ordering U.S. diplomatic figures to engage in espionage in the United Nations, in violation of the international covenants to which the U.S. has signed up.

“Yes, she should resign over that,” The Times and Politico quoted him, as saying.

Assange spoke from an undisclosed location via Skype with Richard Stengel, Time’s managing editor.

Assange said he doesn’t think his project is breaking U.S. law.

He said: “We have now in our 4-year history and over one hundred legal attacks of various kinds and have been victorious in all of those matters.”

“It’s very important to remember the law is not what, not simply what powerful people would want others to believe it is. The law is not what a general says it is. The law is not what Hillary Clinton says it is,” he added. (ANI)
