Such cooperation includes recruiting Russian migrants residing in Germany to conduct acts aimed at destabilizing Russia\u2019s sociopolitical situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moscow regards the meeting as irrefutable evidence that the German authorities are seeking to interfere in Russia\u2019s internal affairs and pose clear threats to Russia\u2019s national security.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For years, Russia has considered CHRi leader Zakayev a terrorist and has sought him for his involvement in armed rebellion and his active support of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This tension escalated significantly after the start of the special operation in 2022, when Zakayev formed battalions of Chechen volunteers to fight alongside Ukrainian forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2024, Russian authorities issued an arrest warrant for him and added him to their wanted list. Since 2022, Zakayev has resided in London, where he was granted political asylum in 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[ SOURCE: teleSUR ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday morning, the Russian Foreign Ministry summoned German Ambassador to Russia Alexander Lambsdorff over a recent meeting in Kiev between a German lawmaker and the leader of a terrorist&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10995,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[8],"class_list":["post-10994","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world"],"authors":[{"term_id":8,"user_id":1,"is_guest":0,"slug":"yolaunicaquehay","display_name":"RRebeldeAdminWP","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e6145d63ff95c9a0f0e53b7149804b1faf86748d6cc15f466103269a288ea377?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10994"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10994\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10996,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10994\/revisions\/10996"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10995"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10994"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=10994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
