Today, official delegation of Transdnestria is arriving in South Ossetia, reported the Foreign Ministry of South Ossetia. Thee delegation is headed by the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Transdnestrian Republic Vladimir Yastrebchak. According to South Ossetian MFA's information, the delegation also includes Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Simonenko, Advisor to the Department for Protocol and Negotiations Sergey Cheresh.
On 22 April 2010, law enforcement bodies of South Ossetia detained Georgian citizens Teimuraz Savelievich Djerapov, 1946, while an attempted crossing of the state border of South Ossetia in the village of Sinagur, Djava district. Upon the South Ossetian Prosecutor General's Office request, Djeranov was wanted by law enforcement bodies since 2006 for crimes committed on the territory of the republic. From 2006 to 2008, Djerapov was so-called Minister for Economic Development of the puppet pro-Georgian government of Dmitry Sanakoev acting in the village of Kurta.
The South Ossetian law enforcement bodies would do their best to ensure peace at the borderline, stated the first Deputy Plenipotentiary for Post-Conflict Settlement Merab Chigoev. Chigoev commented on the statement made by the Interior Ministry of Georgia, in which the South Ossetian side has been blamed in preventing the residents of borderline areas from working in their fields, and that this "makes the social situation more difficult for the local population." According to Chigoev, the media and authorities of Georgia have been lately increasing their activities aimed at slandering positive changes taking place at the borderlines of the Republic of South Ossetia with Georgia, those significant efforts taken to preserve peace at the borders. According to him, this kind of statements is not worth paying attention to. "Nonetheless, I would like to comment on the 20 April statement of Georgia's Interior Ministry that the authorities of South Ossetia had been reportedly preventing the residents of the borderline areas from working on their land, and thus, complicating the social situation for the population. This is pure lies and hypocrisy. First, the residents themselves and the whole world community know that the social situation in whole Georgia, not only in the borderline areas, is complicated by the authorities now in power in Georgia. They do so because of their inability and corruptness", stated Merab Chigoev.
