Assange became voluntarily a Kremlin asset out of spite.
Unlike Snowden who was trapped in Russia because the US government waited until he departed HK before canceled passport and is not pushing Russian propaganda.
Both are charged for committing political crime (motivated by his conviction, commits an unlawful act designed to attack the social structure to bring about a reorganization of the system). The difference is that Assange's conviction was not pure.
