Edward Snowden

Edward Snowden: Edward Snowden's passport was annulled before he left Hong Kong for Russia and while that could complicate his travel plans, the lack of a passport alone could not thwart his plans, the U.S. official said. If a senior official in another country or with an airline orders it, a country could overlook the withdrawn passport, the official said. , according to Winnipeg Free Press. Snowden's allies said he was heading toward Ecuador, where the foreign minister said the government had received a request for asylum. WASHINGTON - The former National Security Agency contractor who disclosed information about highly classified surveillance programs has had his U.S. passport revoked, an official said Sunday. The U.S. official would only discuss the passport on the condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to discuss the matter. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
