Venezuela is the "most likely" asylum choice for former U.S. intelligence contractor Edward Snowden, the journalist who published the contents of the self-declared leaker's classified documents said Tuesday.

In an interview with Reuters shortly after speaking to Snowden by online chat on Tuesday, Glenn Greenwald said that Venezuela—one of three Latin American countries that have offered Snowden asylum—is the one most likely to guarantee his safety.
