Last March, a Palestinian delegation arrived in Moscow for talks with Russian officials. The delegation was from Hamas, the militant Palestinian group that's been labeled a terrorist organization by the United States and the European Union. The meeting, according to the Russian Foreign Ministry, touched on Russia's "unchanged position in support of a just solution to the Palestinian problem."
"When considering the issue of restoring Palestinian national unity, the Russian side expressed its readiness to continue to assist in overcoming differences and bringing together the positions of leading Palestinian political forces and movements on the platform of the Palestine Liberation Organization," the ministry's readout said.
Russia's ties to Hamas are well-documented, as are its ties to Hamas's main backer, Iran. For some observers and commentators of the ongoing bloodshed in Israel, that in itself is cause for blaming Moscow, accusing it of having a direct hand in the spiraling violence.
That's not correct, said Hanna Notte, a Berlin-based analyst with the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies and an expert on Russian policy in the Middle East.

It's bullshit. The unadulterated variety hawked by charlatans.
The US and EU countries, along with the UN have provided more resources to Iran, the "Palestinians" and Hamas, directly and indirectly than Russia ever has. And by at least an order of magnitude.
In fact, Russia hasn't done much of anything for either party...outside lip service and a couple of photo ops.
None of which is MATERIAL SUPPORT, an assertion you cannot refute.
But you’ll settle for the the dishonest and disingenuous conflation of enemies. Because, ultimately, you’re a Ukrainian Partisan desperately trying to hang on to US support.
“The Quran is sacred for Muslims and should be sacred for others.”
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin was gifted a copy of the Quran during his visit to the Juma Mosque of Derbent in Dagestan, known as the oldest mosque in Russia, on the first day of Eid al Adha.

On 24 November 1917, weeks after the Bolshevik Revolution, the Bolsheviks issued an appeal to “All the Muslim Workers of Russia and the East” under Lenin:
Muslims of Russia… all you whose mosques and prayer houses have been destroyed, whose beliefs and customs have been trampled upon by the tsars and oppressors of Russia: your beliefs and practices, your national and cultural institutions are forever free and inviolate. Know that your rights, like those of all the peoples of Russia, are under the mighty protection of the Revolution.
All the Russians have to do anymore is just not be the US and they’re popular all around the world but Europe. I don’t know if the Russians had anything to with the Hamas attack but it pretty much ended the Uke quagmire. If the Strait of Hormuz could get NordStreamed, Putin would really be in the catbird’s seat.
What, NO EVIDENCE of Material Support for either Hamas or Iran?
You’re a fool, with only SPAM in your toolbox.
Russia has weaponized Islam for decades. Stop making excuses.
Haven’t there been official meetings n Moscow between the Russian and Israeli Prime Ministers also????
Kremlin says Israeli bombing of Gaza violates ‘international humanitarian law’

Where is your evidence of material support to the current batch of jihadis?
Oh yeah, the role is reserved for the US and Europe.
The UN and EU both say the same thing.
Russia will play more of a role in containing escalation by Iran and Hezbollah, than 3 ( or is it 4) US Carrier task forces and 73 ships.
Hamas fwiw seems to trust nonWestern mediators like Russia and China….as is the trending way of the rest of the nonWestern world.
Of course our russophobe genius strategerists Binken and Sullivan, are trying to control mediation and exclude Russia from the process. And lining up their sights to use Syria as a convenient punching bag.
Like you’re afraid to hit a bully (Iran) so you beat up his little brother ( Assad)
I guess you are too “thick” to realize that YOU’RE PROVING MARINER’S POINT with your pathetic postings.
Still proving Mariner’s point. You are soooooo easy!
Russia muslims stronk as bull!
