Yes, but one would assume that this case from Sweden is part of what he's seeking asylum for.

I would imagine that if the Ecuadorian government was to grant asylum that its courts would likely find the extradition request to be political persecution and thus dismiss it for violating his rights under the UNHDR and/or Ecuadorian constitutions.

So, yes while most countries have extradition agreements, some have more respect for the rule of law than others.

He's not trying to avoid extradition so much as seeking a jurisdiction where he believe he'll be tried more fairly with respect to the UNHDR and other inalieable rights endowed by his creator.

Sweden is part of the EU, so yes.

Ecuador is not a part of the EU (obviously) so that would not matter, would it?

Not sure if you saw my edit above, but Ecuador has an extradition treaty with the EU, which includes Sweden.

ah, didn't see that edit
