A new agreement on partnership and alliance between South Ossetia and Russia will become one of the fundamental documents defining specific mechanisms of bilateral relations and integration processes, expressed his opinion the Chairman of the State Information and Press of South Ossetia Vyacheslav Gobozov in an interview with the news agency "Res", commenting on the statement of the President Leonid Tibilov about the beginning of the preliminary consultations with Russian colleagues on the development of the draft treaty.

According to Gobozov, the new treaty will have a decisive influence on the improvement of socio-political situation in the Republic.
"However, in some media there are theses about the alleged inappropriate signing of a new agreement, when there is already signed a treaty of friendship and cooperation between South Ossetia and Russia. I think that the authors of these theses do not really understand the subject. Big contract is a framework document, which defines the basic principles of our relationship. On its basis should be developed the relevant agreements, contracts that will determine the specific mechanisms of cooperation in a concrete area, "- said the Chairman of the State Committee.
A very important aspect of the future treaty Gobozov called military component, ie, the issue of security of South Ossetia.
"The provisions of the new treaty more clearly concretize the mechanisms of our military cooperation, security of South Ossetia, which will allow us in a much more relaxed environment to continue our state-building. In addition, the treaty will not be prepared behind -the -scenes; the draft treaty will undergo public examination, despite the lack of time. In drafting the treaty will be involved representatives of the executive and legislative branches of the government, political parties and the public. In my opinion, this is very important, "- said Gobozov.
Another important point of the agreement, he identified the issue of crossing the Russian-South Ossetian border.
"The border should be really transparent for people, for goods and services. It is very important for a comfortable life of our citizens, because we are connected with Russia, and we constantly have to cross the state border. Socio-economic situation in the Republic will also largely depend on the transparency of the border. In addition, there is North Ossetia, and to actually achieve the unity of Ossetia we need to have transparent frontier,"- he stressed.
However, the clauses of the treaty provide for improvement of socio-economic situation in the Republic - the income of the South Ossetian population will be relevant to that one in the Southern Federal District of Russia.
According to the Chairman of the State Committee, drafting the treaty will be considered all models of coexistence of two states –entry into Russia, as well as other forms of integration.
"This issue is often a subject of political speculations of certain forces. For further development of our country we should very clearly determine the model of relations between Russia and South Ossetia. And, of course, this model should be acceptable to both parties. This will allow cutting off all political speculations and moving in a well-defined direction,"- concluded Gobozov.
