Venezuela government on 6 July 2013 offered to give humanitarian asylum
to US intelligence leaker Edward Snowden, who is waiting at a Moscow
airport for some nation to offer him sanctuary.
Moments earlier, Nicaragua government also expressed its willingness to give asylum to the US fugitive, offering a glimmer of hope to Snowden, who has been in limbo at Moscow's international airport since 23 June 2013.
Snowden has applied for asylum in 27 countries as he tries to evade American justice for disclosing a vast US electronic surveillance program. But his bids have been rebuffed by several European nations as well as Brazil and India.
