President Vladimir Putin: Edward Snowden

Edward Snowden: MOSCOW - Moscow's main airport swarmed with journalists from around the globe Wednesday, but the man they were looking for, National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, was nowhere to be seen. , according to Winnipeg Free Press. There were ordinary scenes of duty free shopping, snoozing travellers and tourists sipping coffee but no trace of America's most famous fugitive. If Putin's statement is true, it means that Snowden has effectively lived a life of airport limbo since his weekend flight from Hong Kong, especially with his American passport now revoked by U.S. authorities.
