Ossetian community in Moscow speaks out against civil disobedience campaign of Alla Jiloyeva’s supporters

The latest events in South Ossetia after the presidential polls and public disagreements have caused a reaction in Russia, including responses from the Ossetian community in Moscow. The Ossetian community in Moscow has spoken out against the civil disobedience campaign of Alla Jiloyeva’s supporters.

Some are nettled by failed friendship with the “criminal regime”, others were blinded by revenge, the community’s message for Vestnik Kavkaza says. The statements made by the Ossetian community in Moscow or its council do not reflect views of the council or the community as a whole.

The community expressed disagreement with rumours and false information on South Ossetia. Authors of such rumours and views are often people that have never lived in the republic.

The Ossetian community urged people not to rise to hostile calls, regardless of how “patriotic” or attractive they may seem. Manipulations, lies and understatements cannot cause hostilities within the community and the nation.
