Russian lawmaker: Snowden agrees to Venezuela offer of asylum

“NSA leaker Edward Snowden has accepted Venezuela’s offer of asylum, a key Russian lawmaker tweeted Tuesday.  Alexei Pushkov, the chairman of Russian Duma’s international affairs panel, tweeted that Snowden had accepted the offer from Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. ‘Predictably, Snowden has agreed to Maduro’s offer of political asylum,’ Pushkov tweeted in Russian, according to Russia Today. ‘Apparently, this option appeared most reliable to Snowden.’ Pushkov later tweeted that his information came from a Russian newcast.  State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki warned Monday of consequences after Maduro made his offer.”
