Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Rudenko and the OSCE Co-Chair at the International Geneva Discussions on Security and Stability in Transcaucasia, Special Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office for the South Caucasus, Annika Söder, discussed by phone on Friday topical issues on the agenda of the Geneva Discussions.

At the last round of Geneva discussions, the South Ossetian delegation rejected accusations against South Ossetia of human rights violations, in particular, accusations that residents of the Georgian nationality do not have the right to study in their native language,” Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy Murat Dzhioev said at the press conference in Tskhinval.

“This information is absolutely false, and we have noted that there are schools in South Ossetia where the education is in the Georgian language,” he explained.

At the 52nd round of the Geneva discussions, an agreement was reached to work out individual statements by the leaders of states (South Ossetia, Abkhazia and Georgia) that these countries will not adhere to the use of force,” said Presidential Envoy for post-conflict settlement Murat Dzhioev.

The issue of clarifying the fate of the residents of South Ossetia, listed to be missing since 2008, is important and relevant, and is raised at every round of the Geneva discussions, said the Presidential Envoy Murat Dzhioev.

According to Dzhioev, the 52nd round of the Geneva discussions was no exception, the South Ossetian party once again reminded the participants of the talks about the three reports of the Serbian independent expert Dusan Ignjatovic, who had been invited by the OSCE.

South Ossetia does not expect any help from Georgia, and does not even want it,” said Presidential Envoy for post-conflict settlement Murat Dzhioev at the press conference in Tskhinval.

Murat Dzhioev reacted to the proposal of the Georgian authorities to vaccinate residents of Abkhazia and South Ossetia against coronavirus.

"At the Geneva discussions, the issue of vaccination was not raised, although the representative of Georgia mentioned it in one phrase," the Plenipotentiary said.

The mandate of the Geneva Discussions includes the issue of resolving the refugee problem - it has been considered over many rounds, but since 2010 Georgia has been annually submitting its politicized resolution on refugees and internally displaced persons to the rostrum of the UN General Assembly.

This was stated at the briefing at the State Committee for Information and Press of the Republic by Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy of the Republic for post-conflict settlement, the head of the South Ossetian delegation at the Geneva discussions, Murat Dzhioev.

The Georgian authorities have been bringing to the international community a completely one-sided false, politicized information, creating a completely untrue negative image of the Republic of South Ossetia. This was stated at the briefing at the State Committee for Information and Press of the Republic on Wednesday, by Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy of the Republic for post-conflict settlement, the head of the South Ossetian delegation at the Geneva discussions, Murat Dzhioev.
