Anatoly Bibilov to the border guards: you are carrying out a high mission with dignity
Russian border guards began joint border guarding on April 30, 2009, when an agreement was signed between Russia and South Ossetia on joint efforts to guard the state border. Since then, Russian border guards have been guarding the borders of South Ossetia together with their South Ossetian counterparts, together protecting peace and security in the Republic.
