Julian Assange can stay at Ecuador's London embassy as long as he wants, says President Correa

Rafael Correa also said Ecuador was ready to negotiate over the fate of Mr Assange if Britain withdrew a threat to raid its embassy.

Ecuador was incensed by a veiled British threat to enter the embassy to arrest the 41-year-old former computer hacker, who is trying to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning over allegations of rape and sexual assault.
