Ecuador has confirmed that it has cut Julian Assange's internet access at the country's embassy in London. 。

"He has a weekly slot and writes all his own material," they said. 。
The Ecuadorian government released an official statement Tuesday saying that while it stands by its decision to grant Assange asylum (and a home for the last four years), it doesn't interfere with foreign elections — a reference to the regular email dumps targeting the Democrats and Hillary Clinton that WikiLeaks has been putting out over the past few months. 。
Wikileaks had already accused Ecuador of cutting the cord Monday. "We can confirm Ecuador cut off Assange's internet access Saturday, 5pm GMT, shortly after publication of Clinton's Goldman Sachs (speeches)," the group said in a message posted to Twitter. 。Assange has been living at the embassy for over four years, having first entered its doors in June 2012. He skipped bail to avoid extradition to Sweden over sex crimes allegations. British police insist he'll face arrest if he leaves the building. 。(责任编辑：休閑)
