Where in the world is Edward Snowden? No one knows. Gurardian Live Blog

(Snowden was booked on the flight to Cuba but didn't show)

John Kerry, the US secretary of state, has been speaking about the Snowden case. Kerry said he would be deeply troubled if China and Russia had had prior notice of Snowden's travel plans. More details soon ...

My colleague Miriam Elder didn’t manage to get on that plane to Cuba – but she’s very glad, since it seems Edward Snowden never got on it either. I just spoke to her.

She said Aeroflot officials had told her “with a little smirk” that they had been expecting Snowden too.

But Miriam pointed out that Snowden had never actually been sighted in Moscow, and there was actually no real evidence that he had ever been in Russia at all.

Meanwhile a planeload of journalists are now off to spend the day in Cuba …



Max Seddon of the Associated Press says that he is standing next to Snowden's seat on the flight – and "he ain't here".

Very interesting. Outside of one semi-cryptic tweet not a lot on Twitter either. Like he just disappeared from the face of the Earth. The part about no evidence he was ever in Russia is just hilarious.
OK, I'm betting Brazil. That's where everybody used to go, right?

Because there are few places, if any, our government can't send people to snatch him off the streets and render him back to the US. Maybe it's better that his final destination be left a ?
