In South Ossetia, it is planned to implement serious projects in the field of industry and tourism within the framework of the Investment Program for Promotion of Social- Economic Development of the Republic, President of the Republic of South Ossetia Alan Gagloev said in the exclusive interview with the Rossiya-24 TV channel.
"On January 13, the tender will be end and we are starting to implement serious programs, including the agro-industrial complex, the tourist and recreational complex, and the industrial complex as a separate line," the President said.
He has noted that up to 80 percent of the territory of South Ossetia consists of mountains and foothills, which, in turn, is a great advantage for the Republic.
"The government of the Republic, on my instructions, is working on projects in the mining industry. We have a lot of minerals. We have already sent samples to North Ossetia. We will get concrete results along this line in the near future," he said.
Gagloev drew attention to the prospects for the development of tourism in South Ossetia.
There are more than 1,100 places of historical and architectural significance in the Republic. We have something to show our guests, especially given the current realities and existing sanctions against Russia," the head of state said.
