President Obama considers cancelling his planned trip to Moscow over disagreements regarding former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, The New York Times reports.

Officials cited by the Times have said that, while Obama still
plans to travel to St. Petersburg for the annual gathering of the
G20, he is now rethinking a stop in Moscow due to a range of
issues existing between Russia and the US, most notably the
tentative residence of NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden in a
major international airport in the Russian capital.
