Terrorist groups are increasingly being used for geostrategic purposes, and they are given modern weapons and intelligence equipment, Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev said on Wednesday (3 April).
"Terrorist groups are increasingly being used for geostrategic purposes. Terrorists are given modern weapons, advanced types of tracking and reconnaissance equipment are provided, and intelligence information is supplied," Patrushev said at the 19th annual meeting of security council heads of Shanghai Cooperation Organization member states.
The official called for resolutely and harshly condemning terrorism in all its manifestations and the actions of countries that support or condone it.
