“President Vladimir Putin made starkly clear on Monday that Edward Snowden was not welcome in Russia, and voiced solidarity with the United States over the fugitive former U.S. spy agency contactor. However, Putin repeated that Russia had no intention of handing the American over to the United States, which wants him on espionage charges. For the second time in a week, he said Russian intelligence agencies were not working with Snowden and urged him to leave as soon as possible. ‘If he wants to go away somewhere and someone will accept him there, by all means,’ Putin said.”
