Fugitive¹ US intelligence leaker Edward Snowden has applied² for temporary asylum³ in Russia, officials say.

流亡的美国泄密者爱德华·斯诺登请求俄罗斯提供暂时庇护。

Mr Snowden re-emerged at a news briefing at the airport last week

The Federal Migration⁴ Service confirmed he had completed the relevant paperwork at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport, where he has been for the past three weeks.

Mr Snowden is wanted by the US for leaking details of government surveillance programmes.

He has no travel documents, so has been unable to take up asylum offers from a number of Latin American states.

"He reached the conclusion that he needs to write an application for temporary asylum, and this procedure has just been done," said Anatoly Kucherena, a lawyer with strong links with the Kremlin who helped Mr Snowden with the paperwork.

"For now he is not going to go anywhere. For now he plans to stay in Russia," he said.

Meanwhile the White House reiterated⁵ its position that the fugitive should be expelled and face trial in the US.

"Mr Snowden should not be allowed to engage in further international travel except as necessary to return to the United States," spokesman Jay Carney said.

"He is not a human rights activist⁶. He is not a dissident. He's accused of leaking classified information."
