We are one nation, we have the same roots, we have the same history, the same traditions and customs, Sergey Menyailo, the head of North Ossetia-Alania, said at the solemn meeting of the action group for holding a referendum on South Ossetia's accession to Russia.
"No matter how history develops, no matter who divides whom with borders, we have never felt these borders among ourselves," Menyailo said. - We have good relations, kinship, friendly ties."
According to the head of North Ossetia, tragic and heroic events happen in the history of any nation.
“For Ossetia, for the residents of Ossetia, the history is the same, both tragic and heroic events took place, so the people have the right to express their will. We are one Ossetian nation, we speak the same language, we understand each other, we have the same customs, and we pray to the same saints and God,” Menyailo has added.
