South Ossetia will be represented by 60 participants at the World Festival of Youth and Students
Representatives of South Ossetia will take part in the XIX World Festival of Youth and Students, which will be held from October 14 to 22 in Sochi.
As reported to IA "Res" by the head of the delegation, head of the department of republican programs of the committee for youth policy, sports and tourism Valentina Gatikoeva, South Ossetia will be represented by 60 people at the festival.

Assumptions about the impact of the events in Catalonia on the position of Europe towards South Ossetia are illusory, believes an expert of IA "Res" Inal Pliev.

In his opinion, the logic of block solidarity and frank double standards still prevail in the political elites of European countries, which do not allow them to recognize the political and legal basis of the independence of South Ossetia.

The delegation of South Ossetia took part in the third Artsakh economic forum, dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the activities of the Artsakh Investment Fund.

As reported to IA "Res" by the press service of the Parliament of the RSO, the forum was held from September 29 to October 2 in the capital of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic - Stepanakert.

The South Ossetian delegation has included the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Economy, Small Business and Agriculture Inal Dzhioev and Minister of Economic Development of the RSO Gennady Kokoev.

On September 29-30, a delegation of South Ossetia led by the Chairman of the South Ossetian Parliament Peterr Gassiev was in Sukhum, where took part in festive events dedicated to the 24th anniversary of the Victory in the Patriotic War of the people of Abkhazia.
As reported by the press service of the Parliament of South Ossetia, members of the delegation laid wreaths at the monument to the heroes -volunteers from South Ossetia who fell in the battles for freedom and independence of Abkhazia in 1992-1993.

President of South Ossetia Anatoly Bibilov has received representatives of the Israeli community of Tskhinval, who from 1990 to 1996 moved to permanent residence in the State of Israel.
Bibilov has welcomed the members of the community, noting that the situation that developed in the 1990s in South Ossetia was not favorable not only for the Jews, but for all the inhabitants of the Republic.

The genocide of the people of South Ossetia, carried out by the Menshevik government of the so-called Georgian Democratic Republic in 1920, was a logical continuation of the course taken by Georgia in the Middle Ages to destroy South Ossetia not only politically but also as geographically. It is significant that, on the one hand, the Georgian Bolsheviks led by Ordzhonikidze acted as provokers of the uprising, while on the other hand, Georgian Mensheviks led by Jordania were the executioners of South Ossetia, under the guise of pressure.

The exhibition of Ossetian artists "Atrium" has been opened in the Crystal Hall of the Russian Center of Science and Culture in Prague, told IA "Res" an organizer, Honored Artist of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, laureate of the Russian Academy of Arts Vadim Pukhaev.
According to him, at the exhibition are presented the paintings and graphic works of Ossetian artists and pupils of the Republican Lyceum of Arts of the city of Vladikavkaz.
"The purpose of the exhibition is the promotion of Ossetian national culture and art in European countries," Pukhaev said.
