    Why go seek shelter from the Kremlin if he wasn’t already compromised? Seems like there are many better places he could have gone.

    • Because the Kremlin would protect him and help him broadcast his message. It harms the US government, so the Kremlin sees providing Snowden with protection and a platform as an absolute win.

      Most other countries that are remotely aligned with the US might be pressured to keep Snowden quiet.
