On the difficult path of building stable democratic institutions, South Ossetia faced unprecedented external pressure, and in the difficult August days of 2008 - unprovoked aggression. This is stated in the congratulation of the Russian Foreign Ministry in connection with the 34th anniversary of the formation of the Republic of South Ossetia.
On Friday, South Ossetia is celebrating one of the main holidays – the Republic Day. On September 20, 1990, South Ossetian people's deputies adopted the Declaration of Sovereignty of the Republic.
The Russian Foreign Ministry has noted that the Russian Federation could not help but provide assistance to the South Ossetian brothers and is ready to continue to support the development of the Republic in all areas based on the principles of alliance and integration.
