«On behalf of the people of South Ossetia I would like to express our gratitude to the Government of Russian Federation for the acceptance of such an important for us decision»-said the Prime Minister of the Republic of South Ossetia Yuri Morozov commenting to IA «Res» correspondent an instruction of the President of RF Vladimir Putin of providing an objective backing to Abkhazia and South Ossetia. «The citizens of RSO who has a Russian citizenship, their number is more than 95% can at last fulfill their plans on more worthy life and stable development. One should say these measures are well-timed, for the society having no possibility to develop dynamically and to be optimistic about their future can not be a full-fledged member of International Community. We are aware that the instruction of the RF President of the objective backing providing to South Ossetia and Abkhazia is stems from the need to protect the rights of Russian citizens living in these Republics and we already know the negative reaction caused by these steps in Georgia and some Western States and international organizations. And if hysteria and threats from Georgian side are perceived as quite predictable reaction as inadequacy and ignorance of human rights became traditional for Georgian authorities, the calls of West to Russia to abstain from providing assistance to our people, rouses astonishment and regret. We believe there are enough sound powers in the international community who can adequately perceive our people’s struggle for independence, especially since practically in every country’s history, including NATO member-states exists the same stage. We strongly believe that the Russian Federation will not stop and in near future will recognize Abkhazia and South Ossetia, for no doubt somehow or other we will achieve our goal and as I mentioned we are figure on the support of sound powers of international community vanguarded by the Russian Federation»-said Yuri Morozov.
