Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of South Ossetia sent a congratulatory message to Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Finance of the Republic of Nauru on the occasion of the 11th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the republics.
The Day of Courage and National Unity - November 23 - in South Ossetia is a day off according to the calendar of holidays and memorable dates.
November 23 - one of the most important holidays in the Republic of South Ossetia - St. George's Day ("Dzhuarguba"). However, this day went down in the history of the Ossetian people as the day of the beginning of the heroic chronicle of the Republic of South Ossetia. On this day in 1989, began Georgia's aggression against South Ossetia.
July 14 is the 28th anniversary of a significant event in the history of the Ossetian people – the introduction of a Mixed peacekeeping force in the zone of the Georgian-Ossetian conflict on July 14, 1992. We should recall the international political environment in which the decision to deploy a peacekeeping force was made, as well as the actual deployment and start of operation.
1991 is, really, one of the most difficult periods in the history of South Ossetia. The "black winter", the "bloody Christmas", the beginning of the energy blockade, which killed the old and newborn babies, was followed by an equally terrible spring, which in that year did not bode well for renewal. The tragedy in Ered, in Tsinagar – the Georgian fascism over and over again showed its inhuman appearance.
On April 8, Constitution Day is celebrated in South Ossetia. The basic law of the Republic was adopted at the national referendum in 2001
Among the tragic events and dates, with which, by the will of fate, the modern history of Ossetia was saturated, the Ered tragedy occupies a special place. On March 18, 1991, near the village of Ered, with the support of "civilians", Georgian informals put off 25 Ossetians from the Ural military vehicle belonging to the Internal Troops of the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs.
March 6, 1993 - The Supreme Council of North Ossetia voted to adopt a resolution recognizing the Republic of South Ossetia. This decision was of great symbolic importance, demonstrating the unity of the peoples of Ossetia and its firm intention to seek the restoration of historical justice. It gave a powerful impetus to the development of integration processes between both parts of Ossetia.
A rally dedicated to the 31st anniversary of the withdrawal of the Soviet troops from Afghanistan was held in Tskhinval in front of a monument to internationalist soldiers in the Bam microdistrict. Participants in the event laid flowers and wreaths at the memorial, honoring the memory of the Afghans who did not return from the battlefield.
Murat Guchmazov, a Chairman of the Union of Afghanistan Veterans, noted that "the Afghan war lasted for almost 10 years, through which more than 620 thousand soldiers and officers went through, of which 15 thousand did not return home."
On February 14, 1992, a special police detachment was created in the war-torn South Ossetia. To be more precise, the detachment began to be formed several months before the date that entered the history of the Ossetian statehood. At that time, the entire law enforcement system in South Ossetia was in a difficult situation: the militia began to be disarmed, starting in 1991. The Soviet Union still existed, a system of linear subordination of bodies "union center - republican - autonomous region - city" was built with an unshakable rule of subordination to orders.
President of South Ossetia Anatoly Bibilov on Monday congratulated the Border Guard officers of the State Security Committee of the Republic on the 15th anniversary of the establishment of the service.
