Tskhinval. January 7. INTERFAX - No one is immune from a sudden attack by international terrorist forces, South Ossetian Foreign Minister Dmitry Medoev said on Friday, commenting on the events in Kazakhstan.
"We are closely following the development of recent events in Kazakhstan. The first thing that comes to mind is a firm feeling that no one is immune from a sudden attack by international terrorist forces. If any country is chosen as a victim, it will certainly happen. I think we should continue to think about the close military-political integration of the countries of the post-Soviet space with the participation of new states of this space, here I mean South Ossetia too," the Foreign Minister said.
Medoev believes that the threat of external aggression is still real for South Ossetia. "Unfortunately, there are dead and wounded as a result of the clashes. The President and the government have shown determination and firmness in upholding the principles of the basic law of the country, in protecting the constitutional rights of citizens of Kazakhstan," the Minister said.
He wished the fraternal people of Kazakhstan a speedy restoration of peaceful life. "We will be vigilant, this should not happen again," Medoev stressed.
