“Greenwald told Reuters after speaking with Snowden on Tuesday that of the three countries that have offered Snowden asylum, Venezuela is better positioned ‘to get him safely from Moscow to Latin America and to protect him once he’s there,’ Greenwald said. ‘They’re a bigger country, a stronger country and a richer country with more leverage in international affairs.’ In addition to Venezuela, Nicaragua and Bolivia have indicated they would offer Snowden asylum. Cuba’s president said he supported Snowden and countries’ offers of asylum, but did not put forth an offer from Cuba.”
