The ex-NSA contractor is currently under temporary asylum in Russia. He is wanted by the US on charges of espionage and theft of government property after leaking a vast trove of classified material to journalists that revealed more understanding of the National Security Agency’s global spying operations.
Earlier Snowden said that he wishes to return to the US, but is concerned he would be unfairly convicted of spying and subjected to the same treatment as other leakers who dared to expose government secrets during the Obama administration’s relentless pursuit of whistleblowers under the Espionage Act.
On May 20, a plea to give political asylum to Snowden if Scotland votes for independence was sent to the Scottish Parliament. Campaigner Mick Napier, a teacher at University of Glasgow put forward a petition calling for Snowden, now rector of Glasgow University, to be given shelter in Scotland.
美国“棱镜”监控丑闻揭秘者爱德华•斯诺登的律师沃尔夫冈•卡莱克向德国资讯杂志《明镜周刊》透露,斯诺登目前正“考虑”在某种条件下返回美国。
“双方正在谈判。所有熟悉此事的人都明白,与美国政府达成和解协议将是最合理的方式。”
因此,双方所有的努力都集中于至少在中期范围内找到一个对斯诺登来说可接受的解决办法, 卡莱克说。
他表示,斯诺登泄密从来不是自私的行为,也没对社会造成伤害,因此希望美国政府能为斯诺登回家创造条件。
