The Week in Review: Snowden Leaks Into Europe

Edward J. Snowden remains in the news this week with the latest batch of files released proving the United States has spied on its own European allies, heads of states and the Pope. The former government contractor made famous for leaking classified documents to journalists on the National Security Agency’s data-collecting and digital information gathering practices also appealed to Washington for clemency this Friday.
