It stressed that Ecuador was willing to co-operate with the British and Swedish authorities over the matter of Assange's extradition to Sweden. "In the negotiations with the FCO, Ecuador has been proposing that we would be prepared to accept an undertaking from the UK and Sweden that, once Julian Assange has faced the Swedish investigation, he will not be extradited to a third country: specifically the US. That might be a way out of it and Ecuador has always said it does not want to interfere with the Swedish judicial process; we could facilitate it."
Ecuador are not doing this to be assholes. There is a strong case here for political asylum. Ecuador did assure Sweden that they would co-operate, provided they could assure Assange would not be extradited to the US. Sweden could not assure them of that (something they have done for the US before).
