sweden has a record of giving charged people to the us if its wanted by the courts there, so the guy is afraid that if he is extradited to sweden, sweden can extradite him to the us where they detain people without charges in military prisions

Mr Assange has not been charged with any crime, either in Sweden or in the USA. Swedish authorities are seeking to extradite him from the UK to Sweden 'for questioning' about alleged "sexual misconduct". The Equadorian authorities have invited Swedish prosecutors to interview Mr Assange in their emabasy in London, but oddly, Sweden had declined to do so. You rightly point out that the US has a history of detaining people without due legal process.
