he was expected to be on a flight due to land in cuba in the next hour. there s no indication, though, that snowden ever boarded that plane but another cuba flight is due to lead in a few hours. he flew from hong kong to moscow yesterday and reportedly spent the night at the airport. it s presumed he is still in russia. he s being helped by wikileaks who says he s in a safe place. he s applied for asylum in china and ecuador. ecuador is now weighing the request. the united states is calling on other nations to cooperate with the manhunt. president obama spoke briefly on the matter today. what we know is that we re following all the appropriate legal channels and working with various other countries to make sure that rule of law is
we re tracking this flight somewhere over georgia. it s supposed to land in havana in about an hour, hour and 20 minutes or so from now. we ll continue to track flight 150. it appears maybe he s not on that flight. that seat where he had a ticket, 17a, is empty supposedly. we have a reporter/photographer on that play. and we have a reporter standing live in havana. so we re all over this story for our viewers. secretary of state john kerry is urging russia to cooperate with the united states. he s warning the nsa leaks could have deadly, deadly consequences. what i see is an individual who threatened this country and put americans at risk through the acts what he took. people may die as a consequence of what this man did. it is possible the united states will be attacked because
think about tom hanks in the movie the terminal. he s not officially arrived but he could still be there. now, this question of whether or not he s moved on to some other location, notably cuba, why do we think that s possible? because there was a flight that left at 2:55 local moscow time and will arrive in cuba in about an hour and a half from now. the reason we don t think he s on this plane, even though this has been one of the plan that has been discussed is because we have someone on the plane who can find no sign of him having boarded. his seat is empty. the reason he might be on the plane is that a van pulled up to the plane before it took off, someone got off the van and appeared to get on to the plane, some unknown person. if he were not on that flight, what other possibilities are there? well, another flight i want you to notice this number right
we ll hopefully find out. but we don t know that either. we have someone on that flight, an the person on that flight did not see him onboard. other reporters on flight saw his empty seat. they did see a van pull up to the plane before it left and somebody seemingly get out of that van and maybe get on board the plane. so it s possible he is in here. and if that s the case, that means he actually flew right up over here, over the united states, over atlanta down the coast of florida, right into cuba. but we don t know that to be the case. it s possible that instead of that, perhaps he took some later flight that would have happened out of that area. or beyond all that, wolf, there s speculation about the idea of some sort of private flight. did she have some other way of getting out of the country. when we talk about this whole string of going from moscow to cuba to ecuador, which everyone keeps talking about that is simply speculation. nobody knows.
she knows she ll have a base of support that will stick with her but beyond that it will be very marginal and she ll never be the paula deen she once was. now qvc has said it is reexamining its relationship with deen. a spokesman for walmart would not comment on that company s ties with deen. wolf? thanks very much. just ahead, the senate holds a crucial vote which could potentially determine the future of comprehensive immigration reform. and the nsa leaker may or may not be a flight to cuba right now. we re tracking his where abouts. all of that coming up in our next hour. with centurylink as your trusted technology partner, you can do just that. with our visionary cloud infrastructure, global broadband network and custom communications solutions, your business is more reliable - secure - agile.
