While Georgia is being marinated in the EU dressing room, South Ossetia has long been sitting at the same table with Russia. They can only shake the air with empty statements, said President of Republic of South Ossetia Alan Gagloev at the press conference in Tskhinval, answering a question of IA “Res” about how he assesses the security of the Republic today.
Establishing contacts with the Union State of Russia and Belarus for South Ossetia is one of the important directions in the field of foreign policy, President of Republic of South Ossetia Alan Gagloev said at the press conference in Tskhinval.
“At this stage, we are taking certain steps to increase contacts in the economic, cultural and humanitarian spheres,” the head of state has noted. - For a full-fledged political dialogue with the Union State, appropriate conditions are necessary. This is not a matter of one or two days.”
The processes of integration of North and South Ossetia are in no way connected with the different versions of the name of the Republic, President of South Ossetia Alan Gagloev has noted at the press conference in Tskhinval, answering the question of whether he considers it appropriate to use the name “Republic of South Ossetia-Alania”, confirming irreversibility of political and legal integration of the two Ossetias.
Cooperation between South Ossetia and Russia has reached a high level over the past 15 years and is actively developing in all areas, from the military-political sphere to education, culture and sports, President of the Republic of South Ossetia Alan Gagloev noted on Thursday at the press conference in Tskhinval.
The issue of South Ossetia joining Russia was not removed from the agenda, South Ossetian President Alan Gagloev said during the final press conference.
