Please support Telegram Messenger.

See
​  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegram_%28software%29
and
  ​https://www.telegram.org/

Reference implementation is here

Supporting this protocol enables communication with mobile users which are mostly leaving WhatsApp for Telegram.

Once libpurple gain support for this protocol it should automatically work with telepathy-haze. If it doesn't please open a bug on bugs.freedesktop.org
