The Act of Declaration of the Independence of South Ossetia is one of the most important and significant decisions of the Supreme Council of the Republic, said the deputy of four convocations of the Parliament of South Ossetia Tarzan Kokoity in his interview with the news agency "Res".

"The decision was very important in recognizing the statehood and independence of South Ossetia, said Kokoity.
In 1990, people of South Ossetia and the Council of People's Deputies of the then South Ossetian Autonomous Region proclaimed the South Ossetian Soviet Democratic Republic as a part of a unified Soviet Union. But as we know in late 1991, early 1992 the Soviet Union collapsed.
Kokoity has noted that South Ossetia was left alone with the external long-standing enemy.
"In this situation it was necessary to take some measures - continued Kokoity. - In January 1992, we conducted on the territory of South Ossetia a nationwide referendum on the independence of the Republic of South Ossetia ".

Kokoity has reminded that in the referendum voted 76% of the population of South Ossetia, of which 99% voted for an independent state.
"On this basis, May 29, 1992 the Supreme Council of the Republic of South Ossetia adopted the Act of Declaration of the Independence of South Ossetia - Kokoity added. - Subsequently, no any state has recognized our Republic, but we, observing the Constitution, taking into account the outcome of the referendum, have not changed our decision. "

Kokoity has stressed that the Georgian side tried hard to resolve the issues by force.
"After the adoption of the Act of Declaration of the Independence of South Ossetia, on June 1, the Georgian armed forces, the so-called National Guard invaded South Ossetia and began intensive bombardment of Tskhinval until July 14, 1992, when the Russian peacekeeping battalion entered the territory of the Republic South Ossetia,"- said Kokoity.

"There was not a single day without victims, many people were killed then, - Kokoity said.
People of South Ossetia shed blood to attain the independence and we must preserve the independence for our future generations to live in our prosperous country. "
