Swedish court upholds Assange arrest warrant

If the prosecution values their dignity so much it is free to do the interview per video or by going to London and finish this thing. The options are there, they just have to use them.

How do they "finish the thing" by being unable to complete the arrest because he's sitting on foreign territory?

Particularly when the Ecuadorean embassy keeps throwing curve balls by blocking requests and insisting on asking the questions themselves.

By going to him, which they have been happy to do in many other cases, and have finally agreed to do in this case after the UN criticised the way they have treated him.

Do you honestly believe both that there will be no further objections by Ecuadorian embassy staff and that Assange will agree to walk out of the embassy after the questions are asked and Sweden is allowed to charge him on October 17th? If not, how can you possibly claim that Sweden have been offered an opportunity to "finish it"?

Or try him in absentia. But clearly, they don't care enough.
