Former US
spy agency contractor Edward Snowden has not yet formally accepted asylum in Venezuela, the
anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks said on Tuesday after a Russian lawmaker posted a
statement to that effect on Twitter and then deleted it.
WikiLeaks, on its own Twitter feed, said
that states involved in deciding an asylum destination for Snowden, who fled
the United States last month, “will make the announcement if and when the
appropriate time comes.”
On its Twitter feed, Wikileaks later said: “Tomorrow
the first phase of Edward Snowden’s ‘Flight of Liberty’ campaign will be launched. Follow
for further details.”
The group did not immediately provide any
further information.
