    I wonder if this will be clear enough: Edward Snowden has never offered to "trade" information for asylum anywhere, and he never will.

        @benwizner in fairness, have you been involved in every conversation that Edward has had? So your clarification is hearsay at best.

        @benwizner No1 claimed that he offered classified docs. However he DID offer help (Insider knowledge) in exchange for permanent asylum.

        @benwizner Can we not assume that China and/or Russia have obtained at least some of the information? These are strong-arm governments.
