Russia says knows of no plan for Snowden to seek citizenship

The Kremlin is unaware of any plans by fugitive former US spy agency contractor Edward Snowden to seek Russian citizenship, President Vladimir Putin's spokesman said on Friday.

Snowden, who is wanted in the United States on espionage charges, is holed up at a Moscow airport. A Russian lawyer who helped him file an application for temporary asylum in Russia this week said Snowden had not ruled out seeking citizenship.
