Fugitive US intelligence leaker Edward Snowden on Friday told a group of activists in a meeting at a Moscow airport that he wanted to claim asylum in Russia because he is unable to fly on anywhere else.
Human Rights Watch representative Tanya Lokshina told the Interfax news agency that Snowden told participants "he wants to stay here" while public chamber state advisory body member Olga Kostina told ITAR-TASS that Snowden would request asylum in Russia.
