BREAKING: NSA Leaker has applied for political asylum in Russia.
Reuters reported:
Former U.S. spy agency contractor Edward Snowden has applied for political asylum in Russia, a Russian immigration source close to the matter said on Monday.
The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said a Wikileaks activist who is traveling with Snowden handed his application to a Russian consulate in the transit area at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport late on Sunday.
This comes after Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters earlier today that Snowden could stay in Russia if if he stopped damaging the United States.
