In a conference call with reporters Monday morning Wikileaks founder Julian Assange said Wikileaks is aware of Snowden’s location, but he declined to reveal it. 

“We are aware of where Mr. Snowden is. He is in a safe place and his spirits are high,” Assange said. “Due to the bellicose threats coming from the U.S. administration, we cannot go into further detail at this time.”

Assange was asked if he could say what country Snowden is currently in, but he declined. 

“Unfortunately, we cannot reveal what country he is in at this time,” said Assange.

Snowden left Hong Kong on a flight for Moscow Sunday. The U.S. government believes Snowden is still in Russia.
