Assange escaped to an Ecuadorian embassy to avoid a rape charge in Sweden, which has been dropped. Before that he was out on bail on an espionage charge, where it has been decided that his time has been served for this charge. This video seems to me like another hit piece against the West.
Edit: Actually it was in 2019 when he was charged with the Espionage Act, something he plead guilty to in 2024, this year: to conspiring to obtain and disclose classified U.S. national defence documents.
The Espionage Act of 1917 prohibited obtaining information, recording pictures, or copying descriptions of any information relating to the national defense with intent or reason to believe that the information may be used for the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation.
