Source: The Daily Beast
Even if the Kremlins relationship with the United States significantly thaws under a President Trump, Edward Snowden is guaranteed another two years residency in Russia, The Guardian reported Wednesday. A Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman wrote on Facebook that Snowdens right to stay in the country had been extended by a couple of years, disputing claims that the National Security Agency whistleblower could be used as a bargaining chip in Putin-Trump negotiations. Additionally, in a separate statement, Snowdens lawyer said his client has every legal basis to get Russian citizenship, further suggesting the leaker intends to stay beyond the extra two years.
