He doesn't want to have to prove something in a secret court, by powers who are clear about their stance, because he exposed them?
How evil.
" If someone decides to break those laws, out of ethical considerations, they must also face the consequences. "
But not if the "crimes" were necessary, to unveil the larger crimes.
Oh and he did face the consequences - he has o live on the run, outside of US reach. That only leaves Russia and co.
"Instead he defects to an enemy state and cooperates with their intelligence services."
And where is a slight proof, that he did do that, beyound releasing the info to everyone?
He is not stupid - once on the hook, he would always remain on the hook of the FSB.
