If he had citizenship in a EU country he would be safe. EU countries don’t extradite EU citizens to the US. It would be a whole can of political worms to not extradite a US citizen to the US.
I know that it is a can of worms politically, but now the man the whole world owes the wake-up call that were his leaks to, is forced to live under Putin.
Estonia sometimes gives out honorary citizenship for some stuff and if it was up to me one would go to Snowden. I have doubts that Russia would let him go at this point though.

Not many going to jeopardize a close political relationship over that.
His flight to the USA for extradition would be safe. Julian Assange is also just lucky that he won’t be extradited. Especially as you shouldn’t forget 5/9/14 eyes, for example. But Snowden wouldn’t be 1 day safe in europe
