HONG KONG (Reuters) - Edward Snowden, the former contractor for the National Security Agency, left Hong Kong on a flight for Moscow on Sunday and his final destination may be Ecuador or Iceland, the South China Morning Post said.
It did not give any source for the information. A Hong Kong government spokesman said Snowden had left voluntarily.
But it was reported he had got on an Aeroflot SU213 flight at 10.55am this morning (Hong Kong time) and is expected to arrive in Moscow’s Shermetyevo International Airport at 5.15pm.

Per the article he may go to Venezuela ..a bastion of democracy if ever there was one.
Strange ..
I’m impressed by Hong Kong’s response. They basically said F You to Obummer. Said Barry didn’t provide enough info. on extradition request, which means they’re calling the Kenyan a dumbass. I’ve lived in China for 3 years and I learned the hard way, when it comes to clever schemes nobody is better at scheming than the Chinese. You read their ancient history and classic literary works it’s always about how to fool your enemies and how not to get deceived by your enemies. I bet the Chinese were laughing real hard when they first saw the extradition papers. The Chinese are expert chess players and Barry is a third-rate checkers man.
