WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is expected to address the Council of Europe on Tuesday for the first time since his release from Britain in June, the collective he founded announced today.

Mr Assange will go to Strasbourg to speak “to the Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe”, following the release of a report of a CSC investigation into “the consequences of his imprisonment and its wider impact on human rights, particularly freedom of journalism”, WikiLeaks explained via X.
