“Anatoly Kucherena, a Russian lawyer who assists the whistleblower, told RT: ‘It’s hard for me to say what his actions would be in terms of a positive decision [on the asylum plea],’ Kucherena said. ‘We must understand that security is the number one issue in his case. I think the process of adaptation will take some time. It’s an understandable process as he doesn’t know the Russian language, our customs, and our laws.’ ‘He’s planning to arrange his life here. He plans to get a job. And, I think, that all his further decisions will be made considering the situation he found himself in,’ he added.”
