>>go against Russia by leaking information about a US surveillance program
The information Snowden leaked was in no way against Russia, it benefited Russia enormously.
Even the stuff that was on his claimed point created turmoil in the US to this day, which harms the US and only helps Russia
The other stuff he leaked helped Russia directly, and directly endangered and likely got killed US people and/or assets.
and of course he claimed his laptop was secure while he was in Hong Kong on his way to Russia. Anyone who thinks it stayed that way and he was allowed/invited to stay in Russia is a fool.
There is nothing he did that didn't harm the US and benefit Russia, and he was a very successful Russian op. the mere fact that it is still being debated here in the Us shows how successful it was, even if just a provocation/disinformation operation.
