On February 3, 2025, Moscow once again hosts terrorists. A delegation led by Musa Abu-Marzuk, the deputy head of the political wing of Hamas, is set to arrive in the Russian capital.
This was reported by Russian RIA Novosti, citing a source within the delegation.
According to the source, the program for the visit includes negotiations at the Russian Foreign Ministry. The Kremlin, as before, claims that this is part of the diplomatic process.
It is assumed that the negotiations are necessary for Alexander Trufanov, who holds both Russian and Israeli citizenship, allowing the Russian Foreign Ministry to present these discussions as a significant achievement and underscore their importance in the context of the Middle Eastern conflict.
However, even without Kremlin intervention, it is known that Trufanov is already included in the lists for release in the initial phase of negotiations.
Despite the cordial relations between the Russian Foreign Ministry and Hamas, it is puzzling that they have not expedited the release of the Russian citizen. Instead, Israel and the USA have been involved in efforts for his rescue.
Hope remains that Trufanov and the other hostages will return home to Israel soon. The role of Moscow as a mediator has long been apparent to all.
At the end of January, the Russian Foreign Ministry reported that its deputy head, Mikhail Bogdanov, discussed by phone with Marzuk the fate of Alexander Trufanov, a Russian citizen, along with Maxim Kharkin, a native of Donbass, emphasizing Moscow’s interest in their prompt release.
Hamas sent a delegation to Moscow after the Russian ship…
However, the world observes a different narrative:
- Russia provides Hamas with political legitimacy
- Moscow ignores international calls to condemn terrorism
- Visits of militants to Russia have become regular
Who the terrorists meet with in Moscow remains unreported, but previously they were received by the deputy head of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Mikhail Bogdanov, a long-standing supporter of cooperation with anti-Israeli groups.
After October 7, Hamas immediately went to Moscow
While the world was shocked by the massacre carried out by Hamas in Israel on October 7, 2023, the militants visited Moscow. The delegation was led by Abu Marzuk, one of the group’s leaders.
This visit was not publicly announced and caused considerable controversy. However, Russia, which does not classify Hamas as a terrorist organization, welcomed them warmly.
What did the terrorists discuss in Moscow?
- Hostage release (no progress reported)
- Evacuation of Russians from the Gaza Strip
- Calls to halt “Israeli crimes” – a term the Kremlin uses to describe Israel’s defensive actions
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs even confirmed the meeting, but did not disclose details of the negotiations.
This visit provoked outrage in Israel, prompting the Israeli Foreign Ministry to summon Russian Ambassador Anatoly Viktorov to express strong protest. Israel asserted that hosting Hamas leaders in Moscow appears to support terrorism.
Russia and Hamas: The Terrorist Union
While the civilized world condemns the attacks on Israel, Russia continues to forge ties with terrorists, and this is by design.
Key events in the history of the Russia-Hamas partnership:
| Year | Event |
|---|---|
| 2006 | Putin congratulated Hamas on its victory in the Palestinian elections |
| 2006 | Hamas leaders visited Moscow and met with officials from the Russian Foreign Ministry |
| 2007 | Russia officially hosted Hamas leader Khaled Mashal |
| 2023 | Two weeks after the attack on Israel, Hamas returned to Moscow |
| 2025 | The Hamas delegation arrived in Moscow again for negotiations with the Kremlin |
Moscow never recognizes Hamas as a terrorist organization. Russia claims it is engaging in “dialogue with all parties involved in the conflict.”
Why does Russia support Hamas?
Russia leverages Hamas as a tool of influence in the Middle East.
The Kremlin:
- Views Hamas as a lever of pressure on Israel
- Employs terrorists to enhance anti-Western rhetoric
- Considers Hamas an ally in an anti-Western coalition with Iran
Russia’s cooperation with terrorists goes beyond mere diplomacy; it represents open support for a group that is undermining Israel.
Conclusion: Russia and Hamas – a Terrorist Tandem
After October 7, Israel made it unequivocally clear: Hamas must be eradicated. However, Russia continues to back terrorists, providing them with a platform for negotiations.
This alliance demonstrates that Moscow and Hamas speak the same language – the language of terror.
