During the meeting the Ambassador expressed to the Minister sympathy and condolences on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Georgian aggression against South Ossetia, when hundreds of innocent people and dozens of Russian peacekeepers were killed.

Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of South Ossetia
Over a long period of time South Ossetia has been the object of the predatory aspirations of the Georgian authorities. Since proclamation of the Georgian independence each new leader considered it his duty to start military actions, ethnic cleansings or genocides against the Ossetian people. Many thousands of the Ossetians were killed and massacred as a result of that. The genocides of the Ossetian people in 1920, 1989-1992, the military invasion in 2004 and, finally, the Georgian-Ossetian war in August 2008, in which the military confrontation culminated, left deep open wounds in hearts of the Ossetian people.
