Assange used Ecuador's embassy for 'spying', says president

Julian Assange used the Ecuadorean embassy in London as a "centre for spying", the country's leader has said.

Lenin Moreno also said no other nation had influenced the decision to revoke the WikiLeaks founder's asylum after what he called violations by Assange.

President Moreno told the Guardian newspaper Ecuador's old government had provided facilities within the embassy "to interfere" with other states.

Assange's lawyer had earlier accused Ecuador of "outrageous allegations".

President Moreno - who came to power in 2017 - said of the decision to end Assange's seven-year stay in the embassy: "Any attempt to destabilise is a reprehensible act for Ecuador, because we are a sovereign nation and respectful of the politics of each country."

He added: "We can not allow our house, the house that opened its doors, to become a centre for spying."

US Federal Reserve has weakened stocks and US growth, Trump claims

US stocks would be nearly a third higher and the economy growing more robustly were it not for the actions of its central bank, the Federal Reserve, President Donald Trump has claimed.

Mr Trump has repeatedly lashed out at the independent central bank, accusing it of undermining momentum in the US economy.

Earlier this month the President called for the Federal Reserve to slash interest rates in order to put a “rocket” under growth.

His fresh criticisms come after global leaders said they were worried about central bank independence during the International Monetary Fund’s Spring conference in Washington.

ECB's Draghi worried about Fed's independence

European Central Bank President Mario Draghi expressed concern on Saturday about the U.S. Federal Reserve’s independence, warning that a loss of its autonomy could undermine the credibility of policy.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s nomination of two controversial candidates to the Fed’s board and persistent calls for rate cuts has raised the specter of government interference, challenging a fundamental tenet of modern central banking.

“I’m certainly worried about central bank independence in other countries, especially… in the most important jurisdiction in the world,” Draghi said about the United States.

“If the central bank is not independent, then people may well think that monetary policy decisions follow political advice rather than objective assessment of the economic outlook,” he told a news conference.

Governments from Turkey to India and the United States have put increasing pressure on their central banks in recent months, igniting a debate about the value of independence.

But some argue that unconventional policy, used widely now, redistributes wealth, so monetary policy makes increasingly political decisions and thus requires increased political scrutiny.

“Within (their) mandate, however, central banks ought to be left free to choose what’s the best way to comply with the mandate,” Draghi said. “Because if you don’t let them be free, then they’re not accountable. That’s the central banking framework since the 80s everywhere.”

Still, Draghi argued that he saw no similar threat to the ECB’s independence given the legal safeguards and he also did not think that cases of interference elsewhere were undermining global confidence.
