While in Geneva, Ms. Moris gave several interviews emphasizing that “All organizations defending press freedom are against the prosecution”, and that this case presents “the greatest threat to freedom of expression and of the press.” Ms. Moris added that she was pleased to see so much support in Geneva and the governments’ concern for Julian’s well-being.”

Prior to visiting Geneva. Ms. Moris attended a Paris press conference together with Julian Assange’s French lawyer Antoine Vey, in conjunction with the Association des Juristes de Sciences Po.

Watch Stella Moris’ interview with L’Humanité discussing the conditions Julian Assange faces while continuing to be unjustly detained. Unable to visit her partner since last October, Stella speaks of the “life and death” struggle for her partners life.

“It is unacceptable for a foreign power to be able tell Britain what to do. It’s time for President Joe Biden to drop the charges against Julian and Boris Johnson should ask him to do so at the G7 meeting in Cornwall this week. Hopefully then, justice will prevail.”
