　　Snowden ‘considers’ returning to US – report

　　American whistleblower Edward Snowden is “considering” returning home to the USA under certain conditions, his lawyer told German news magazine Der Spiegel.

　　"There are negotiations," Snowden&aposs German lawyer Wolfgang Kaleck told Der Spiegel. "Those who know the case are aware that an amicable agreement with the US authorities will be most reasonable.”

　　All forts are now focused on finding a solution acceptable for Edward Snowden, at least in the medium term, according to Kaleck, who is also secretary-general for the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights.

　　Meanwhile, former NSA contractor isn’t involved in these negotiations, according to Kaleck, who added that his client never acted selfishly and caused no damage.

　　At Kaleck’s request, the NSA investigation committee in the German Bundestag, a constitutional and legislative body, is currently clarifying with the Cabinet of Germany (Bundesregierung) if the whistleblower can enter and testify there.

　　Reports that the famous whistleblower wants to come back to the US and was seeking high-ranked lawyer to negotiate his return first emerged in April. The New York Times wrote that during the summer of 2013, Snowden was seeking the assistance of DC-based attorney Plato Cacheris to negotiate a plea deal with federal prosecutors that would allow Snowden to return to the US as well as spare him significant prison time.

　　Snowden, while employed by the NSA, took up to 1.7 million classified files on US vast surveillance apparatus and intelligence gathering methods.

　　The ex-NSA contractor is currently under temporary asylum in Russia. He is wanted by the US on charges of espionage and tht of government property after leaking a vast trove of classified material to journalists that revealed more understanding of the National Security Agency’s global spying operations.

　　Earlier Snowden said that he wishes to return to the US, but is concerned he would be unfairly convicted of spying and subjected to the same treatment as other leakers who dared to expose government secrets during the Obama administration’s relentless pursuit of whistleblowers under the Espionage Act.

　　On May 20, a plea to give political asylum to Snowden if Scotland votes for independence was sent to the Scottish Parliament. Campaigner Mick Napier, a teacher at University of Glasgow put forward a petition calling for Snowden, now rector of Glasgow University, to be given shelter in Scotland.

　　美國(guó)“棱鏡”監(jiān)控丑聞揭秘者愛(ài)德華?斯諾登的律師沃爾夫?qū)?卡萊克向德國(guó)新聞雜志《明鏡周刊》透露，斯諾登目前正“考慮”在某種條件下返回美國(guó)。

　　“雙方正在談判。所有熟悉此事的人都明白，與美國(guó)政府達(dá)成和解協(xié)議將是最合理的方式?！?/p>

　　因此，雙方所有的努力都集中于至少在中期范圍內(nèi)找到一個(gè)對(duì)斯諾登來(lái)說(shuō)可接受的解決辦法， 卡萊克說(shuō)。

　　他表示，斯諾登泄密從來(lái)不是自私的行為，也沒(méi)對(duì)社會(huì)造成傷害，因此希望美國(guó)政府能為斯諾登回家創(chuàng)造條件。

　　據(jù)悉，斯諾登本人并未參與這些談判。在卡雷克的請(qǐng)求下，德國(guó)聯(lián)邦議院NSA調(diào)查委員會(huì)目前正在與德國(guó)內(nèi)閣評(píng)估斯諾登是否可前來(lái)德國(guó)作證事宜。

　　4月，有報(bào)道稱斯諾登希望返美，正邀請(qǐng)高級(jí)律師同美國(guó)政府談判。《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》報(bào)道稱，2013年夏天，斯諾登曾尋求華盛頓著名律師普拉托?卡切里斯的幫助同美國(guó)聯(lián)邦檢察官談判，如達(dá)成協(xié)議，斯諾登將得以回國(guó)，刑期大大縮短。

　　斯諾登目前仍在俄羅斯避難，掌握有170萬(wàn)份美國(guó)全球監(jiān)控和情報(bào)搜集方式的機(jī)密文件。

　　去年以來(lái)，斯諾登接連向記者披露機(jī)密文件，使美國(guó)國(guó)家安全局的全球監(jiān)控活動(dòng)公之于眾，后遭美國(guó)政府通緝，罪名是間諜罪和盜竊國(guó)家財(cái)產(chǎn)罪。

　　早些時(shí)候，斯諾登曾表示希望回歸，但擔(dān)心被判間諜罪成立，經(jīng)歷其他美國(guó)政府泄密者同樣的命運(yùn)。

　　今年2月，斯諾登當(dāng)選蘇格蘭格拉斯哥大學(xué)學(xué)生校長(zhǎng)。5月20日，該校教師兼活動(dòng)家米克?內(nèi)皮爾發(fā)起了一份請(qǐng)?jiān)笗?shū)，呼吁斯諾登能獲準(zhǔn)在蘇格蘭避難。而蘇格蘭將于9月18日舉行是否脫離英國(guó)獨(dú)立的全民公投。
