Julian Assange has used his appearance at the Bendigo Writers Festival to address the controversy surrounding allegations of sexual assault made against him in Sweden.

Mr Assange made a point of speaking about the issue, despite interviewer Robert Manne's initial reluctance, in a live cross from the Ecuadorian embassy in London.

"The situation is this, there is one allegation, there are no charges, there have never been charges," he said.

"In relation to this precise allegation, I have already been cleared by the chief prosecutor of Stockholm, back in 2010, who found that no crime had been committed whatsoever."

That's false. Prosecutors are going to interview him in connection to the allegations. Assange is lying.
