Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, has returned to Australia after 14 years of legal battles with the US government. His lawyer claims that his return has "saved his life", while his wife Stella described being overcome with emotion upon hearing about the crowds cheering at his arrival.

1 / 2
  1. Kristinn Hrafnsson
    Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe
    1. This is the result of a long, long process which has been going on for some time. It has been a tough battle, but the focus now is on Julian being reunited with his family.
  2. Simon Birmingham
    University of Hong Kong
    1. This call is neither necessary nor appropriate. Julian Assange was not wrongfully detained like Cheng Lei, Sean Turnell or Kylie Moore-Gilbert. For 12 years Assange chose to avoid facing justice in countries with fair judicial systems. He is undeserving of this treatment.
  3. James Paterson
    Australia Palestine Advocacy Network
    1. The reason why it's gone on for a long time is that he was evading lawful extradition requests.
  4. AU
    Stella Assange
    1. Every day since the seventh of December 2010 he has been in one form of detention or another.
    2. Julian walks out of Saipan federal court a free man. I can't stop crying.
    3. Words cannot express our immense gratitude to YOU — yes YOU, who have all mobilised for years and years to make this come true.
    4. Saipan is a remote US overseas territory. He will be entering the United States. Julian won't be safe until he lands in Australia.
