Moscow is reportedly toying with the idea of handing NSA leaker Edward Snowden over to President Trump as a housewarming gift after the whistleblow and alleged spy spent four years hiding in Russia.
The Kremlin’s ploy emerged from intelligence reports that outlined Russian talks about ways to “curry favor” with the Trump administration, according to an NBC News report citing two unnamed U.S. officials.
…Trump has called Snowden a “terrible traitor” and “a spy who should be executed.”
Boston University professor and longtime CIA officer Joseph Wippl said gift-wrapping Snowden and forcing him on a plane to U.S. “wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense.”
…On Twitter, Snowden hailed the rumor as “irrefutable evidence that I never cooperated with Russian intel.”
“No country trades away spies, as the rest would fear they’re next,” his tweet read.
