One obvious guess would be that it's a dress rehearsal for a possible Nobel peace prize win.

It would also be a powerful statement if he could visit western countries without being arrested.

It would be powerful. It's actualy shameful that Assange and Snowden are so constrained, especially for telling the truth. Ironically, Roman Palanski plead guilty to raping a 13 year old. Later, he was detained in Switzerland but they denied a U.S. extradition request.
It's sad basic travel would send a powerful message, just because that means many assume that these constraints are a foregone conclusion.
