This is Secretary of State John Kerry’s answer, given May 28 on CBS This Morning:
“He should man up, come back to the United States. If he has a complaint about what’s wrong with American surveillance, come back here and stand in our system of justice and make his case. But instead, he’s just sitting there taking pot shots at his country, violating his oath that he took when he took on the job he took, and betraying, I think, the fundamental agreement that he entered into when he became an employee.”
Lest anyone miss the point, Kerry explained that same day on MSNBC that Snowden is a “coward” and a “traitor.”
