Assange hopes for 'dialogue' with Britain
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange voiced hope for "dialogue" with British and US authorities over his future on Friday after Swedish prosecutors dropped a long-running rape investigation against him.
"My legal staff have contacted the UK authorities and we hope to engage in a dialogue about what will be the best way forward," he said, adding that he was equally "happy to engage" in dialogue with the United States.
