And do not collapse, son

The former employee of the American intelligence services Edward Snowden should stay in Russia and not return back to the United States. According to ITAR-TASS, this was stated by his father, Lon Snowden, after arriving from Moscow to the New York International Airport named after John Kennedy.

Snowden Sr. said that he really liked in Russia and he would still return here, although he does not know when exactly. He also noted that his son "feels good and he is comfortable in Russia." "As my father, I advised him to stay in Russia and not come to the United States. That was my advice, in any case, he will make a decision on his own," Snowden said.

“In Russia, I was a tourist, a guest, and I am very grateful to this country for granting a refuge to my son,” continued Snowden Sr.. He also expressed gratitude to all the people with whom he managed to meet in Russia, for their cordiality and help.

Also, the father of the famous exposure warned his powerful enemies: Snowden Jr. can tell a lot about the illegal activity of American special services. “There is much more that can be made public,” he said.

According to him, the ex-employee of the CIA took care in advance to hide the data in his reliable places. As Edward Snowden himself previously said, the information was transmitted to reliable journalists who can publish it if something happens to him.

Edward Snowden is accused of disclosing secret information about the electronic surveillance programs of the National Security agency. In his homeland, he is charged with a violation of the two articles of the United States on espionage of 1917 - an unauthorized disclosure of secret information affecting national defense, and the deliberate transfer of data to American intelligence who does not have the right to receive such information. In addition, Snowden is charged with theft of the US government. For each of these points, he faces up to 10 years in prison.
