    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Many states will recognize South Ossetia sooner or
    later, vice speaker of the South Ossetian parliament Yuri Dzidtsoity
    said when commenting on Nicaragua's recognition of South Ossetia.

    "We knew that Nicaragua intends to recognize independence of our
    republic, but it's hard to give an exact explanation to the fact,"
    Dzidtsoity said, adding that some European states will also recognize
    Abkhazia and South Ossetia, reported the South Ossetian state committee
    on information and press.

    "If it were not for the United States, many EU member countries,
    including France, Germany and Italy, would recognize South Ossetia,"
    he said. "As to China, it may not recognize our independence due to
    the problems it experiences with Tibet and Taiwan."

    Recognition can be expected from Iran, Mongolia and SCO member
    countries, according to him.

    Nicaragua followed Russia to recognize South Ossetia and
    Abkhazia. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez also announced support to
    Russia but no official announcement has come yet.
