National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden ripped into President Obama on Monday, accusing the White House of using “political aggression” to force his extradition back to the United States.

“The Obama administration has now adopted the strategy of using citizenship as a weapon,” Snowden said in a statement Monday evening posted by Wikileaks, the anti-government-secrecy group. “Although I am convicted of nothing, it has unilaterally revoked my passport, leaving me a stateless person. Without any judicial order, the administration now seeks to stop me exercising a basic right. A right that belongs to everybody. The right to seek asylum.”
