South Ossetia is committed to becoming part of Russia, said Eduard Kokoity, president of the self-proclaimed republic. \"We will seek to restore historical justice - union with North Ossetia and accession to Russia,\" Kokoity told a news conference at the Interfax Central Office in Moscow on Tuesday. Commenting on Georgia\'s intention to join NATO, he said that \"this is a right of our neighboring state, but accession will be without South Ossetia and Abkhazia. We have nothing to do with Georgia.\" \"Many people often compare South Ossetia and Abkhazia to Kosovo. I want to remind everyone that South Ossetia and Abkhazia have more political and legal reasons for recognition than Kosovo,\" he said. (Interfax)
