President of South Ossetia Leonid Tibilov and Deputy Secretary of the Security Council of Russia Rashid Nurgaliyev, who arrived in the Republic on a working visit, have inspected today the construction of the road-Tskhinval- Leningor. They were accompanied by members of the South Ossetian government and representatives of the Russian interdepartmental working group, who arrived in the Republic on September 23.
As the news agency "Res" has been informed by a press secretary of the President of South Ossetia Ghana Yanovskaya, the trip participants drove along both routes of the road – the upper (through the mountain pass), which today provides a road connection with Leningor district, and the "lower" – which is under construction along the border villages.
"The leadership of the Republic and the Russian guests talked with representatives of the building companies involved in construction of the road Tskhinval-Leningor, who told them about the progress of construction and the problems they had" - said Yanovskaya.
She added that the members of the inspection trip met with the district administration and local residents; they discussed with them the urgent socio-economic issues. Head of State and the Russian official have also visited the village of Tsinagar, where are being conducted water-well drilling works for providing the local residents with drinking water. A meeting with the workers and the dwellers of the village has also been held there.
Tonight a joint meeting of the leadership of the Republic and members of the Russian delegation will be held in Tskhinval, where will be discussed the results of the today's trip.
It should be noted that during the two-day visit, the interagency working group is planning to inspect the reconstruction process and the new construction of social facilities and infrastructure provided in the investment program on promoting socio-economic development of South Ossetia in 2012-2013.
