Медведев провел встречу с лидером Южной Осетии в Сочи в канун третьей годовщины признания Россией Абхазии и Южной Осетии.

26 August 2011

Приветствуя Эдуарда Кокойты, президент России напомнил, что "завтра исполняется три года с момента признания Российской Федерацией в качестве независимого государства Южной Осетии и Абхазии. Я Вас сердечно поздравляю, потому что это было действительно большое событие для югоосетинского народа. С тех пор прошло уже три года, республика развивается, есть достижения, есть трудности, которые всегда сопровождают развитие. Поэтому давайте поговорим об укреплении двустороннего взаимодействия и международных вопросах, которые связаны с развитием вашего государства."

Признание Россией этих двух территорий, которые отделились от Грузии после распада СССР остается спорным и нашло небольшую поддержку на международной арене, и лишь несколько маргинальных стран последовали примеру России. Знаменательно, что ни одна из других бывших республик СССР не последовали примеру России.

Из-за своего размера, географического положения и небольшого населения Южная Осетия остается самой слабой из двух этих образовании, и ее жизнеспособность в качестве независимого государства ставится под сомнение даже в русских официальных кругах. Некоторые предполагают, что она должна объединиться с Северной Осетией, но это означает, что присоединение к России повлечет изменение границ Российской Федерации, что станет предлогом в сознании многих, чтобы открыть ящик Пандоры, со многими возможными последствиями.

Aden under curfew, as problem in Yemen's south deepens

8 January 2026
The port city of Aden, in Yemen's south, has been put under curfew, as the rift in the country between  the Saudi led coalition which  backs Yemen's presidential governing council, and the southern forces led by the Southern Transitional Council (STC), deepens. Abdul Rahman al-Mahrami, a member of the Yemeni Presidential Governing Council and commander of the al-Amalik brigades, has ordered a curfew in the temporary capital, Aden, "to maintain security". "A curfew has been imposed throughout Aden Governorate from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., in accordance with the instructions of Commander Abdul Rahman al-Mahrami, a member of the Presidential Management Council," the statement said. It states that only security and military personnel, as well as medical and technical teams with approved permits, will be allowed to move in the area during these hours. Yemen's presidential council, which is backed by Saudi Arabia and which already is in a struggle with the Houthi Movement in the north of the country who also occupy the capital Sanaa, two days ago issued an order for the arrest of the head of the Southern Transitional Council (STC),, Aidarous al Zubaidi. The STC have wide support among people in the South, and advocate that South Yemen restores its independence. The coalition warned of further escalation in Aden, long regarded as an STC stronghold, as the Presidential Leadership Council (PLC) chief accused STC leader Aidarous Al Zubaidi of “high treason” and announced the revocation of his membership in the governing body. The moves mark a sharp escalation in tensions within the anti-Houthi camp, despite National Shield Forces, rivals of the STC and former allies, having recently retaken control of Hadhramaut and Mahra from southern fighters. The STC’s takeover of the two regions last month angered Saudi Arabia and contributed to igniting the current internal conflict. (click the picture to read more)
