Apparently being shielded by Russia
and its laws is no guarantee of safety. “I don't think that is going to happen
but we saw American special forces intervening in other countries. Also with
regards to our own citizens – they get detained abroad and transferred to U.S.
territory.”
“We believe the danger remains quite
high and, as I see it, it is impossible at the moment to reveal where he's
living or to talk openly about it,” he said, adding that “what you have to
understand is that he's being persecuted by a major power – the US government
and we fear there could be some very serious consequences.”
But it would be foolish for Snowden
to completely let his guard down. Nor does he wish to, as it was at his request
that his location remain absolutely secret. The prospect of discovery and lack
of knowledge on what might be done by outside actors to influence the leaker’s
life here in Russia still make this a somewhat tricky situation, as Kucherena
put it.
