WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange demanded the complete removal of every United States leader, from the lowest government official all the way to the highest office, for their involvement in spying on UN officials including the resignation of President Barack Obama. The whole chain of command who was aware of this order, and approved it, must resign if the US is to be seen to be credible nation that obeys the rule of law, Assange told an Australian newspaper through an internet phone call. The order is so serious it may well have been put to the president for approval. Obama should say what he knew about this illegal order and when he knew it. If he refuses to answer or provide no evidence that approved those actions, he should resign.

According to one of the documents, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asked for UN personnels telephones, emails, credit card details and frequent flier numbers. The US and other governments said the release of the documents broke their laws.
