As reported by The Age: “Former US intelligence leaker Edward Snowden has applied for political asylum in Norway, the Norwegian foreign ministry confirmed on Tuesday. Asked whether Mr Snowden had applied for asylum to the Nordic country, foreign ministry spokesman Frode Andersen said: “I can confirm that. We have received an asylum application by fax to our embassy in Moscow late yesterday afternoon.”

“It is probably from him and it is allegedly signed by him, but we have no way of checking that,” he said.” whistle
