President Biden is considering Australia's request to halt the prosecution of Julian Assange, who faces extradition to the U.S. for espionage charges. Assange's wife and Australian lawmakers seek a resolution, with the extradition process on hold since March. U.S. prosecutors aim to try Assange on 18 charges related to WikiLeaks' release of classified U.S. documents.
