Snowden Asks Putin Question on Russian Surveillance on Live TV: Former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden joined a public question-and-answer session with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow via video.
Snowden asked Putin if Russia had similar surveillance programs as the United States--referring to the mass collection and storage of data from individuals around the world.
“Mr. Snowden, you are a former agent, a spy, I used to be working for an intelligence service, we are going to talk one professional language,” Putin began, via a translator.
Putin explained that any intelligence operations were strictly regulated by Russian law, and required court permission to spy on an individual.
