Snowden can get asylum in Switzerland

The Federal Prosecutor's Office of Switzerland said that she was ready to provide asylum with the exposure of the American special services to Edward Snowden, Sonntags Zeitung reports . The condition will be testing them against its former employer, the US National Security Agency, and reveal the details of the espionage activities of American intelligence.

The prosecutor's office published a special document "What rules should be valid if Edward Snowden arrives in Switzerland and the United States will send a request for its issuance." It says that he can be guaranteed the right of asylum. The “higher state obligations” can serve as a barely obstacle. Are there such obligations, the prosecutor's office will check in the near future.

The Federal Prosecutor's Office intends to interview Snowden as part of the investigation of the activities of foreign intelligence services in the country. The Zurich lawyer Marcel Bosonne, representing the interests of Snotsden in Swissia, said that he had already “showed interest” in the testimony.

On August 7, lawyer Anatoly Kucheren said that Snowden received a residence permit in Russia for three years. "This document allows him to leave the territory of Russia, travel to other countries and visit other countries and so on. Depending on how he will plan his time," Kucheren said at a press conference in Moscow.

The decision to obtain Russian citizenship or return to the United States will make Snowden himself, but he did not decide, Kucheren said.

In July, Snowden appealed to the Moscow Region Department of the FMS of Russia with a request to extend his stay in Russia. The documents were submitted due to the expiration of the term of the temporary asylum provided by Snowden.

In 2013, Snowden handed over a number of secret documents on the activities of the CIA and the NSA, in which, in particular, it was reported that they monitored telephone conversations and electronic correspondence of both US citizens and residents of other countries, including high -level politicians. In his homeland, ex-employee of special services threatens up to 30 years in prison for disclosing state secrets.

In August 2013, Snowden received a temporary asylum in Russia . At the end of April, the media reported that he turned to the famous lawyer Plato Plato with a request to help conclude a deal with American justice, which would allow Snowden to return home.

In early June, it became known that Snowden officially turned to the Brazilian authorities with a request to provide him with a temporary shelter. Snowden noted that he also sent such requests to a number of other countries.
