 Some where in Moscow's airport, U.S.intelligence leaker Edward Snowden remains¹ in the station of limo searching fora country to take him in. Vladimir Jutier and Fredric Planken have gathered inthe latest on the former national security contractor²'s on going sage³. First,let's go to Vladimir Jutier.

 

It's day 11 of the Edward Snowden stakeout. The 30-year old NSA leader remains hold up here in a transit⁴ lounge ofMoscow's Sheremetyevo airport. At least, according to Russian president Putin,he says it's long as he remains in transit. He technically⁵ isn't in Russia.Now, we got here about 5:30 in the morning. Now we spent most of our daywalking up and down the corridors, checking out the various gates of theflights of departing to the countries where the Snowden has applied⁶ for asylum⁷.And so far we haven't spotted⁸ him.

 

This is a pretty nice lounge withrestaurants, a bar and even a Burger King, but we can't be sure he has evenvisited to him so the question is how long Snowden can keep this up.

 

I just got here and I keep asking, wait,when our fight to HK takes off.

 

Many travelers we spoke⁹ with are not at allsympathy to Snowden's flight and say his actions put Americans at risk. 

 

There is a reason why that had to keep secretand he didn't have the right to make that knowledge public.

 

Fred Planken has more from our Moscowbureau.

 

We are piecing the boarder picture togetherhere in our newsroom central Moscow and right there are really isn't very muchmovement in th case itself, but still a lot of uncertainty¹⁰. 

 

Russia says it is still looking for a thirdcountry that will take Edward Snowden in. After the former contractor withdrewhis request from Russia for asylum. Officials in Moscow insist they will nothand him over to the U.S. So it looks like he could stay inside the airport fora while. The case is causing diplomatic tensions. Bolivia's president EvoMorales was forced to making emergency landing in Austria after attending aconference in Moscow. The reason several European countries denies his planeover flight rights because Snowden might be on board. The Bolivian presidenthas said he could be willling to consider a silence for Snowden. Authoritieswho checked Morales aircraft said Snowden wasn't there but the Bolivianslikened the incident to a kidnapping.

 

There has been no explanation as to why Iwas not allowed to flight over French, Portugal, Italy and later Spain too.Because we had permission to land in the Canary Island.

Marales was able to continue his journeybut it remains unclear whether Edward Snowden will continue his or where hemight go.
