Edward Snowden, accepting Sweden's Right Livelihood Honorary Award, says he has no regrets about leaking National Security Agency documents. Rough Cut (no reporter narration).
SEXY Russian spy Anna Chapman tried to seduce whistleblower Edward Snowden on orders straight from the Kremlin, according to a defector.
Boris Karpichkov, a former KGB agent, claims that a plan was launched for Ms Chapman, 32, to keep Mr Snowden, 31, in Moscow so that Russian agents could continue to question him about US security secrets, according to a new report.
Mr Snowden and Ms Chapman met only once, Mr Karpichkov said. But Ms Chapman followed up that meeting last year with a tweet heard round the world.
Snowden, she tweeted, will you marry me?!
According to Mr Karpichkov, it was all a part of the plan.
But Snowden became concerned about what the consequences would be, Mr Karpichkov told Londons Sunday People. If Snowden had accepted, he would have a right to Russian citizenship. That would lock him in Russia. As a citizen hed need permission to leave.
Last year, Chapman walked out of an NBC interview in Moscow after the spy-turned-Russian celebrity refused to answer questions about her proposal to Snowden.
