Russia says it would consider giving NSA leaker asylum, as pol taunts of 'hysteria in US'

MOSCOW — Russia would consider granting asylum to the American
who has exposed top-secret NSA surveillance programs, if he were to ask
for it, President Vladimir Putin's spokesman said on Tuesday.Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stopped short of saying Moscow would accept Edward Snowden, but pro-Kremlin lawmakers spoke out in favor of the idea, tapping into a lingering Cold War rivalry with the United States and a vein of anti-American sentiment Putin has often encouraged.
"Promising Snowden asylum, Moscow takes upon itself the defense of people persecuted for political reasons," Alexei Pushkov, chairman of the international affairs committee in the lower house of parliament, said on Twitter.
"There will be hysteria in the United States. They recognize this as their right alone," he said.
Putin and other Russian officials have often accused the United States of hypocrisy, saying it tries to impose standards of human rights, freedom and democracy on other nations while falling far short of them itself.
Snowden, the former CIA employee who leaked top-secret documents about US surveillance programs, fled to Hong Kong and has said he hopes that Iceland might grant him asylum.
He is not known to have mentioned the possibility of asylum in Russia, but Peskov was quoted in Russian daily Kommersant as saying Moscow was open to such an approach.

Asked by Reuters whether Russia would be inclined to grant an
asylum request, the spokesman said: "It is impossible (to say) now. No
one has applied yet. If he says: I request (political asylum), then we
will consider it."If Snowden wanted to accept Russia's hospitality, he would have to make the nearly 6,000 mile trek from Hong Kong to Moscow first.
On Tuesday the 29-year-old Snowden's whereabouts were unknown, a day after he checked out of a trendy Hong Kong hotel. But large photos of his face were splashed on most Hong Kong newspapers with headlines such as "Deep Throat Hides in HK," and "World's Most Wanted Man Breaks Cover in Hong Kong."
The coverage is likely to increase the chances of him being recognized although he could still blend with the city's tens of thousands of expatriates from the United States, Britain, Australia and Europe.
