UPDATE: Edward Snowden Reportedly To Fly To Oslo, Norway After Moscow.
Edward Snowden, the NSA Whisleblower boyfriend of Lindsey Mills, is as of this writing at Moscow Sheremetyevo International Aiport, having arrived on Aeroflot flight SU213, and from Hong Kong.
Mr. Snowden was successfully transported out of Hong Kong when the U.S Department Of Justice failed to provide a “sufficient” legal reason for the Hong Kong government to send Snowden back to America. He has been charged with espionage by the U.S. Government, in a kind of “place holding” arrest warrant.
Now, according to journalist Irina Galushko in Moscow, Snowden is in the airport, and his passport is being processed, while an airport crowd is reportedly confused:
