Snowden speaks out against FBI Director Comey's firing
Edward Snowden, former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor-turned-whistleblower, on Wednesday called on US citizens to speak out against the dismissal of Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) James Comey.
On Tuesday, the FBI director was removed from his post because, according to the administration of US President Donald Trump, he mishandled the probe into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her term as Secretary of State.





​In 2013, Snowden leaked classified documents pertaining to the mass surveillance practices carried out by US authorities around the globe. The following year, Snowden received a three-year residence permit to live in Russia, which was later extended until 2020.
