“Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has offered asylum to U.S. intelligence leaker Edward Snowden, the state-run AVN news agency reported Friday, without offering details.
The report came shortly after Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega said he would grant Snowden asylum in his country ‘if the circumstances permit.’ Ortega didn’t elaborate on his announcement, made during a speech in Managua, except to say his country is ‘open and respectful to the right of asylum.'”
