Russia won't have two Ossetias

After meeting with Poland’s Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski Sergei Lavrov had a conference with reporters where he told that South Ossetia has no intention to be included, specifying that, in South Ossetia, they simply realized that they were unable to guarantee their security without proclaiming independence.

Uniting the divided Ossetian nation is of humanitarian rather than of political nature, and South Ossetian President Eduard Kokoity didn’t mean joining the Russian Federation, South Ossetia’s Envoy to Russia Dmitry Medoev explained when commenting on the statement of Kokoity.
