Is Snowden worth it?
... not worth equaling ourselves to the nations like Ecuador whose embassy is hosting Julian Assange. This is not the way a world power - which Russia wants to be or wishes to appear - acts. Given that the United States are very sensitive to the issues of terrorism and security it is very likely that the US-Russia relations would be damaged to a far greater degree than in case of Magnitski-Yakovlev acts.
