BERLIN: The online whistle-blower WikiLeaks says it will continue to publish more secret files from governments around the world despite U.S. demands to cancel plans to release classified military documents.
A WikiLeaks spokesman who goes by the name Daniel Schmitt told The Associated Press Saturday that "I can assure you that we will keep publishing documents _ that's what we do."
He said he could not comment on any specific documents but asserted that the publication of classified documents about the Afghanistan war directly contributed to the public's understanding of the conflict.
He said that "hopefully with this understanding, public scrutiny will then influence governments to develop better politics."
