“allowed Snowden to stay”

I wonder about that. I bet he would like to leave, actually. The Russians are “allowing” him to stay though. I am sure the Russians eventually will have all that he has, if they don’t already.

Snowden’s not going anywhere. Even if another country would cough up the documents necessary for him to legally leave Russia, the final okay has to come from the Russians. And my guess is they’re not going to let him out of their sight, now that they’ve no doubt pumped him for information and fear that he might squeal to the press about his treatment.
