Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood on Russian 'terrorism' list

Russian-Egyptian investment planned Diplomatic sources at the Russian embassy in Cairo have denied that President Mohammed Morsi demanded that Russian President Vladimir Putin remove the Muslim Brotherhood from the Russian list of terrorist groups.
In 2003 the Russian Supreme Court adopted a decision to name more than 12 Islamic organisations, including the Muslim Brotherhood in a list of terrorist groups.
In a statement to Arabstoday the sources said that Russia has not yet decided to consider removing the name of Muslim Brotherhood from its lists of terrorist groups, and the matter will be discussed in time by the Russian Supreme Court.
The sources added that at the meeting between Morsi and Putin, the leaders were able to find common ground, and that investment projects in Egypt may be initiated.
The Muslim added to the list because of their relations with Chechen separatists in the 1990s.
A famous Russian newspaper reported that the Brotherhood could be lifted from the blacklist as many Russian diplomats are now convinced that the Brotherhood has no links to Chechen separatists.
However, this view is yet to be backed by political action.
According to the Russian intelligence information, the Muslim Brotherhood has been detected in 49 Russian regions, and is suspected of coordinating with groups to spread “Islamic militancy.”
