If you are going to the USA for the first time, you must visit Washington!!!! In the morning we visited museums because they close at 5 p.m. And from 1 p.m. we went to the Capitol. Art Museum - 41,500 works. An amazing story happened to me!! While walking near the Capitol, a young American, about 24 years old, approached me. He introduced himself, said he was a correspondent for the Washington Post newspaper, and immediately apologized for accidentally overhearing my phone conversation and asked if I was from Russia after my affirmative answer. He asked a few questions about the war. The correspondent asked: "Why is Russia bombing South Ossetia? Isn't its own territory enough for it?" I explained to him that he had inaccurate facts and that it was Georgia doing the bombing, and that Russia, on the contrary, was helping the residents of South Ossetia as much as it could. It's true, all the channels were saying what a bad Russia it is, and they weren't telling the truth—they were silent!!! The journalist took a few photos, thanked me for the interview, and told me to read his article on the front page of the Washington Post.

Ossétie du Sud-Alanie: ce qu’il y a autour, comment y aller et quand venir · 2026
Navigating daily life here means working under strict territorial isolation, where supply lines and border access depend heavily on the single northern passage toward Russia.
A contested mountainous enclave shaped by strict administrative isolation and outside budgetary reliance.
Territorial status defines daily realities throughout South Ossetia. The territory borders only Russia and Georgia, leaving standard transit and supply routes entirely dependent on crossings like the Roki Tunnel. Most daily commerce operates in Russian rubles rather than domestic currencies, while external subsidies finance public operations.

Agrarian subsistence sustains households across the valleys, where local farming produces cereals, fruit, and livestock. Industrial operations remain scarce outside the capital, with several facilities idling. Access challenges across surrounding crossing points keep logistical links narrow, demanding thorough advance logistics.
