Fugitive U.S. intelligence leaker Edward Snowden is still in the transit zone at a Moscow airport but has the right to fly anywhere he desires, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Wednesday.

"He has not violated Russian law, he has not crossed the border, he is in the transit zone of the airport and can fly anywhere that he wants," Lavrov was quoted as saying by the foreign ministry. "The sooner this happens, the better".
