    Still it’s 100.0% USAs decisions that pushed him to Russia, it’s not like he went there immediately (2013), he was on the run and in shitty conditions for years before he finally had enough and went to Russia (2022).

    USA still wanted to disappear (torture) him, not even allowing him to stay in other NATO or non-NATO countries.

    A USA hero is safer in Russia, and Putin had nothing to do with setting that situation up (safe for not deporting him to USA ofc, which otc lol).

      Snowden took a flight from Hong Kong to Moscow on June 23, 2013, and he’s been in Russia ever since. Don’t know who told you he went to Russia in '22, he’s been there for a long time.

      And how does this justify Snowden promoting russian genocidal imperialism in Ukraine?

      He did a good thing, so now he is an untouchable saint?
