The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of South Ossetia Akhsar Dzhioev sent a congratulatory message to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates  of the Syrian Arab Republic Faisal al-Mekdad on the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the recognition of the independence of the Republic of South Ossetia by the Syrian Arab Republic.

The congratulation, in particular, says:

«On May 29, 2018, on the day of another anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of our state, our people got a priceless gift: recognition of the state sovereignty of the Republic of South Ossetia by the Syrian Arab Republic.

The Ossetian people pay tribute to the people and the leadership of Syria for the fact that they, being far from South Ossetia, extended a hand of friendship to us. This responsible and courageous step was another proof of Syria's commitment to a just world order, readiness to protect the ideals of goodness and creation, to develop good-neighborly relations and mutually beneficial diplomatic ties.

Mr. Minister, highly appreciating Syrian support to South Ossetia across the international arena, I express confidence that the  strengthening of political, socio-economic and cultural ties between the two states will always serve for the benefit of our peoples».
