This document appears to be page 106 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the file name 'Epst'), stamped as evidence for the House Oversight Committee. It details Edward Snowden's time in Hong Kong, asserting he did not contact the governments of Iceland or Ecuador directly, and argues that logistical constraints meant he could only safely fly to China, North Korea, or Russia to avoid US extradition. The text highlights that Snowden's only confirmed contact was with Russia, citing a statement by Vladimir Putin describing Snowden as an 'agent of special services.'
