The latest talking points regarding the "occupation," voiced by the Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze at the summit during the High-Level Week of the 81st session of the UN General Assembly, demonstrate that Tbilisi's rhetoric remains unchanged. This was stated in a commentary by the South Ossetian Foreign Ministry representative regarding the Georgian Prime Minister's speech.

A meeting took place in Moscow between Konstantin Kochiev—State Advisor to President of South Ossetia and the head of the South Ossetian delegation to the International Discussions on Security and Stability in Transcaucasia—and Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin, as well as the Abkhazian Foreign Minister Oleg Bartsits.

The inauguration of South Ossetia’s President-elect, Marat Kambolov—who won the election on September 18—will take place on September 30.

The Republic’s Central Election Commission (CEC) reported this to the "Res" news agency.

"A president elected in accordance with the Republic's constitution and constitutional laws assumes office on the tenth day following the CEC's official publication of the election results," the CEC has clarified.

The "Vasso Abaev" commemorative banknote issued by the National Bank of South Ossetia—part of a series honoring prominent Ossetian figures—has been sent to dealers in Spain, the Netherlands, Belarus, Iran, Thailand, India, China, Brazil, the USA, and Canada. This was announced by press service of the Bank of Alania.

The banknote will soon be displayed at the international exhibition in Europe.

On September 20, the Bank of Alania put into circulation a new commemorative banknote with a face value of 200 zarins, dedicated to the prominent Ossetian scholar Vasso Abaev.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has congratulated Marat Kambolov on his election as President of South Ossetia, the Kremlin website reports.

"Such a convincing election victory has confirmed the high level of trust the citizens of South Ossetia place in you.

Relations between Moscow and Tskhinval are friendly and allied in nature.

I am confident that your work as head of state will foster their continued steady development for the benefit of our peoples and in the interest of strengthening regional security and stability," the congratulatory message reads.

The South Ossetian Foreign Ministry reacted sharply to statements by the European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen regarding a plan to propose that Syria withdraw its recognition of the Republic's independence, viewing these remarks as political blackmail against the Syrian authorities and interference in the sovereign decisions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.

The arrival of the Nicaraguan delegation for the early presidential elections serves as an expression of solidarity with the people of South Ossetia, an international observer Cairo Amador, Vice-Chairman of the Supreme Electoral Council of the Republic of Nicaragua, said.

He has noted that the election campaign is being conducted with a high level of organization.

"First of all, I would like to convey a message of strong support from our government and people. I am proud to be here and to witness the political processes taking place in the Republic," he said.

Anton Lopatin, an observer from the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation, highly praised the organization of the presidential election in South Ossetia.

"Today is an important day for South Ossetia—the presidential election is taking place. It is no exaggeration to already congratulate the Republic's electoral system on the successful organization of the voting," Lopatin has stated.

According to him, a festive atmosphere prevails at the polling stations, and the commission members are demonstrating professional competence.

Uniting the veteran community is a long-overdue step, and its primary mission must be to support the families of the fallen heroes.

This was stated by ex -President of South Ossetia, Anatoly Bibilov, at the meeting of the Association of Veterans of the Republic’s Patriotic War and Participants in the special military operation.

He has noted that the destinies of the Republic of South Ossetia and the Russian Federation are inextricably linked.

On September 15, 1821, the courageous people of Nicaragua determined their path toward freedom and independence—a path rooted in respect for a rich historical heritage and fidelity to the national ideal of unity and a heroic struggle for justice.

This sentiment was expressed in a congratulatory message of the South Ossetian Foreign Minister Akhsar Dzhioev to the Nicaraguan Foreign Ministers Denis Ronaldo Moncada Colindres and Waldrak Ludwing Jaentschke Whitaker on the occasion of the Republic's Independence Day.
