The Union State of Russia and Belarus is a very important body with which South Ossetia would like to cooperate, but it is too early to talk about joining it, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic, Akhsar Dzhioev, noted at the briefing at the Information and Press Committee of the Republic.
“We have contacts with the bodies of the Union State. We maintain relations with its standing committee. Last year we had the opportunity to participate in the Union State event in Brest, and we are planning this year too,” Dzhioev said.
According to him, at the moment, issues related to socio-economic, cultural, party and other ties are being discussed with the structures of the Union State.
“Last year our athletes performed successfully in Minsk. We have connections and contacts, and we will promote them,” the Minister has emphasized.
