Will you commit to picking up the phone to ask the US administration to drop the charges against Mr Assange? There were reports that the Trump administration in the latter days of the Trump term was close to pardoning Assange and may have done so if they had received representations from the Australian government. Will you pick up the phone to the incoming Biden administration?
