Fugitive¹ US whistleblower Edward Snowden is still in the transit² area at Moscow airport, Russia's President Vladimir Putin has confirmed.

俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京证实，流亡的美国告密者爱德华·斯诺登仍然待在莫斯科机场过境区。

"He is a transit passenger in the transit zone and is still there now," he said, adding that the sooner he chose a destination, the better.

A White House spokeswoman said Russia had a "clear legal basis" to expel Mr Snowden.

Venezuela has said it would consider an asylum³ application from Mr Snowden.

"We say and advocate that someone in the world should stand with this young man and protect him, the revelations（泄露，启示） he has made with courage serve to change the world," President Nicolas Maduro said.

Russia says Mr Snowden has not yet passed through immigration, so technically⁴ is not yet under their jurisdiction（司法权，审判权）.

The Russians have rejected American charges that they have assisted Mr Snowden.

Mr Snowden flew from Hong Kong to Moscow on Sunday. He was expected to board a flight to the Venezuelan capital Caracas on Monday but never appeared.

The US has revoked⁵ Mr Snowden's passport, and he has applied⁶ for asylum in Ecuador.

He is being supported by the whistleblowing website Wikileaks, and is being accompanied by some of its legal advisers⁷.

Ecuador is already giving political asylum at its London embassy to Wikileaks founder⁸ Julian Assange.
