We're going to wrap up our live blog coverage for the day. Here's a summary of where things stand:

• Edward Snowden appeared in public for the first time in weeks to meet with representatives of human rights organizations inside the Moscow airport. Snowden said he felt safe at the airport and his living conditions were good, but he knew he could not stay there forever.

• Snowden applied for temporary asylum in Russia but said he wished to travel to one of the Latin American countries that had offered him asylum. The speaker of the Duma said Russia "should" accept Snowden's application for asylum.

• Dmitry Peskov, president Vladimir Putin's spokesman, told Russian news agencies that Russia has not yet received a new bid for asylum from Snowden and that Putin would continue with his insistence that Snowden stop leaking information. Snowden appeared agreeable to that restriction.

• The White House and State Department called on Russia to hand Snowden over and criticized Moscow for providing Snowden what they said was a "propaganda platform."

• Snowden released a statement declaring his belief in international rights transcending national allegiance. "I believe in the principle declared at Nuremberg in 1945," the statement read in part. "Individuals have international duties which transcend the national obligations of obedience. Therefore individual citizens have the duty to violate domestic laws to prevent crimes against peace and humanity from occurring."
