Tensions between the United States and Russia came to a head last week after Russia granted temporary asylum to Edward J. Snowden, the National Security Agency leaker, with the White House announcing President Obama would not meet with President Vladimir V. Putin next month.

Lon Snowden, Mr. Snowden’s father, will appear on ABC’s “This Week” with Bruce Fein, a lawyer. Then, the chairmen of the Senate and House foreign relations committees â€" Senator Robert Menendez, Democrat of New Jersey, and Representative Ed Royce, Republican of California â€" will discuss the American response to Russia and the terror threat that shut down diplomatic missions around the world.

With potential 2016 presidential candidates already flocking to Iowa, ABC will have an interview with Donald Trump, the real estate mogul who weighed a run in 2012.

In a news conference Friday, Mr. Obama announced plans for increased transparency in the government’s surveillance efforts. Representative Mike McCaul of Texas, the chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, joins NBC’s “Meet the Press” to talk about this and other security concerns.

Also on the program will be Senator Claire McCaskill, Democrat of Missouri, discussing sexual assault in the military.

Michael V. Hayden, former head of the N.S.A. and the Central Intelligence Agency, will talk about the week’s news on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” Representative Peter T. King, Republican of New York and a member of the House Intelligence Committee, and Representative C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger of Maryland, ranking Democrat on that committee, will also weigh in on the president’s N.S.A. proposal.

Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona and a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, talks about Russia on “Fox News Sunday.” Chip Saltsman, a Republican strategist, and Joe Trippi, a Democratic strategist, join the program to talk about whether the 2016 race has already begun.

Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, will appear on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday to talk about the questions members of Congress are facing in their districts about implementation of the president’s health care law. Also, Representative James E. Clyburn, a South Carolina Democrat who supported a House proposal to defund the N.S.A.’s surveillance program, will talk about Mr. Obama’s proposal to improve transparency.

Representative Dana Rohrabacher, Republican of California, weighs in on the decision by Russia to grant Mr. Snowden asylum, appearing on C-Span’s “Newsmakers.”

Calabria, director of financial regulation studies at the Cato Institute, will appear on Bloomberg’s “Capitol Gains” to debate the government’s role in housing.
