I was under the impression Snowden happened to be in Russia on route to another country when he was stuck for some reason.
IIRC his passport was revoked, but if I'm wrong I'd enjoy some readings that say otherwise. Its been a while since I followed the story.

I thought the american people deserved to know the things he released… But it might have been less innocent than one guy being a whistleblower. Other peer powers accommodated him in their interests.

He chose Russia as layover location because Hong Kong has a limited amount of flights and he ruled that the one least likely to arrest him en route. There was no "we're not sure."
- b33j0r 3y agoI’m happy that you knew well enough to report my honest recollection. I can understand that someone may have thought I was intentionally saying something wrong. The truth is: I did not know/remember exactly, and thought we were having a conversation about a controversial issue. Facts are most appreciated.
