Edward Snowden est celui par qui le scandale arrive. Celui qui a livré des informations sur les pratiques de la NSA et orchestré une des fuites les plus importantes de l'histoire américaine continue de parler alors que le Président américain est plutôt discret.
"Instead, Obama is taking the well-worn path of moving on to other issues — on Tuesday, he applauded the Senate’s progress on immigration reform and met with Peru’s president — even as he faces shouted questions about a storyline that sizzles just about everywhere else.
And it isn’t just the president who’s steering clear of Snowden.
The White House press office has been directing requests for comment to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, or the Justice Department, or just about anywhere other than the West Wing. At his daily briefings, press secretary Jay Carney has repeatedly declined to comment.
“I am not going to discuss the subject of a recently opened investigation. So the whereabouts of this individual, his status, any details about the investigation, I would refer to — questions about those matters, I would refer to the Department of Justice and the FBI,” he said Tuesday, echoing what he said the previous day as well.
Even when asked whether Obama had viewed The Guardian’s video interview with Snowden, Carney was vague, saying only that the president had been briefed on the leaker’s identity when it first emerged in news reports.
