Ecuador's Minister of Foreign Affairs Ricardo Patino (L) and Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Marco Albuja attend a news conference regarding WikiLeaks' founder Julian Assange in Quito June 19, 2012. Assange is seeking asylum in Ecuador after arriving at the South American nation's embassy in London, Ecuador's foreign minister said on Tuesday, a move that may help the self-styled anti-secrecy crusader avoid extradition to Sweden.
