The British government approved the extradition of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange to the United States on Friday to stand trial for the publication of secret files related to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. The interior ministry of Home Secretary Priti Patel stated that Assange had 14 days to file an appeal, which comes after a British court upheld a formal order authorizing his deportation.
