He fled to the country with directions from russia before releasing the classified Intel.

  Nonsense. He gave the material to Greenwald and a Guardian journalist in Hong Kong. He stayed in Hong Kong for a while, and when it became apparent that he could not go to other countries he went to Russia. Whether the Guardian published the info after that is irrelevant. Also note that Greenwald asked him to publish anonymously, which Snowden declined. Anyway, the U.S. could pardon him and he would go back. All these armchair whistleblowers here are mindblowing.

Is that just another way of saying he fled the country before releasing the stolen intelligence?
