Lawyer Kucherena urges Trump, Biden to drop criminal charges against Snowden, as he is prosecuted for telling the truth
MOSCOW. Dec 15 (Interfax) - U.S. President-elect Joe Biden should review the case of former CIA and NSA officer Edward Snowden and drop the criminal charges against him, Snowden s lawyer Anatoly Kucherena said. If the item appears on the agenda, this agenda should prescribe that the next U.S. president take another look at the problem and, accordingly, drop any criminal charges against Snowden, because the only reason he is being prosecuted is for telling the truth, Kucherena told Interfax on Tuesday.
