MOSCOW -- About 150 opposition activists from South Ossetia have held an unapproved protest in front the Russian Duma in Moscow, RFE/RL's Russian Service reports.
The protesters object to the policies of South Ossetian President Eduard Kokoity.
Alan Gassiev, a member of the political council of the opposition People's Party, told RFE/RL that Kokoity is implementing "antidemocratic politics."
