Edward Snowden is believed to remain at an airport in Moscow. On Monday, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro confirmed he’s received Snowden’s official asylum request. Maduro said asylum offers from his government, as well as from Bolivia and Nicaragua, show that large parts of Latin America are becoming a humanitarian corridor.
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro: “We received an application letter for asylum from Snowden. He will need to decide when to fly here, if he definitely wants to fly here. The fact is that Latin America is humanitarian territory, and it’s growing every day.”
