No. I don't believe anyone is dictating his every move. What i was saying before is that his "plan" might not have went much past "get to Hong Kong and do x". For example "you get to Hong Kong, bring this info and we'll give you $4,000,000.00 and guarantee your safety" - which very often then turns into "welcome, thanks for the stuff, we got some bad news for you,... funny story...". Remember the most important fact. The only leverage he has is against the USA and he played those cards all at once. To anyone else (China, Russia, Ecuador etc), he's just a tool to use until it has no use.
I don't think there is much point in reading into anything said or done. For Russia, China and Jullien Assange, It's all self serving theater. Much of the truth won't be known for years.
The only thing I will bet money on is that he will end up back in the US and be tried for what he's done. There is zero chance the government will let this go without a severe response.
