Russia and China are flexing their muscles with Washington as diplomatic relations between the world's greatest economic and political forces plunges to new depths as the US continues it hunt for elusive whistleblower Edward Snowden.
In Moscow, foreign minister Sergey Lavrov has slammed US demands to extradite NSA whistleblowerEdward Snowden, who is believed to have stopped in Moscow while trying to evade American justice.
Lavrov said Snowden has not crossed the Russian border and insisted that Russia has nothing to do with him, his relations with US justice, or his travel plans.
He angrily criticised American demands for Snowden's extradition and warnings of negative consequences if Moscow fails to comply.
