A businessman connected to the controversial website said a chartered private jet is ready for the 30-year-old, who fled to Hong Kong after leaking U.S security details.

It comes after Iceland admitted holding talks with Snowden over the possibility of seeking political asylum.

Olafur Sigurvinsson, head of DataCell, which handles donations to Wikileaks, revealed details of the private jet.

Speaking to Channel2 television, he said: 'Everything is ready on our side and the plane could take off tomorrow.

'We have really done all we can do. We have a plane and all the logistics in place.'

The jet is believed to belong to a Chinese firm and has been chartered at a cost of $240,000.
