Currently sending the characters <, > and & will fail due to the HTML parser thinking they are a part of a HTML tag in the Telegram sending function.

They should be escaped accordingly: "All <, > and & symbols that are not a part of a tag or an HTML entity must be replaced with the corresponding HTML entities (< with &lt;, > with &gt; and & with &amp;)."

See https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#html-style for more details.

An alternative would be switching to MarkdownV2 parse_mode.
