That's probably the case, but let me also suggest that keeping him does Putin no good long term. Yes, he was able to laugh at America for a week but Russia has to figure he's more trouble than he's worth when they have to wheel and deal with America.
Better to pawn him off on a smaller fish.

If China and Russia don't want him, going to Switzerland or Sweden might actually be a good idea. He'd be gambling, but if he can convince them that he is basically a political refugee they might let him stay. If he went somewhere like Venezuela or Ecuador he'd be dead in a week.

If china or Russia wont have him then he might as well kill himself because those are the only two countries that have a legit shot at protecting him because i dont think our gov would really get into a stand off or risk some behind enemy lines operation for snowden.
i dont think he is worried about wheeling and dealing with anyone
