Акцент при этом ставится на ключевых угрозах безопасности для Республики Южная Осетия, фактически находящейся в состоянии латентного конфликта с Грузией. В исследовании применен метод ситуационного анализа (ситанализ), предполагающего рассмотрение проблемы  на  прикладном  уровне,  выявление всех факторов, влияющих на формирование конкретной специфики ситуации. Важнейшей частью ситуационного анализа автор считает выработку практических рекомендаций, чтобы реализовать благоприятный прогноз и по возможности избежать неблагоприятного развития событий.</p><p>Согласно основным выводам автора, на текущий момент Республика  Южная Осетия сталкивается на Южном Кавказе с рядом серьезных внешних угроз своей национальной безопасности. Существующие угрозы, вызовы и риски для Южной Осетии в регионе Южного Кавказа имеют тенденцию к нарастанию – как в локальном, так и общерегиональном варианте. По мнению автора, следует продолжать применять усилия по созданию устойчивой архитектуры безопасности на Южном Кавказе с целью предотвращения любых насильственных сценариев разрешения существующих противоречий и достижения устойчивого мира и стабильности в регионе.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article analyzes the security problems in the South Caucasus. The emphasis is placed on the key security threats to the Republic of South Ossetia, which is actually in a state of latent conflict with Georgia. The article uses the method of situational analysis (sitanalysis), which involves considering the problem at the applied level, identifying all the factors that influence the formation of the situation. The author considers that the most important part of the situational analysis is the development of practical recommendations in order to implement a favorable forecast and, if possible, avoid an unfavorable course of events.</p><p>According to the author’s main conclusions, the Republic of South Ossetia is currently facing a number of serious external threats to its national security in the South Caucasus. The existing threats, challenges and risks for South Ossetia in the South Caucasus region tend to increase, both in local and regional variants. According to the author, efforts should continue to create a sustainable security architecture in the South Caucasus in order to prevent any violent scenarios for resolving existing contradictions and achieving sustainable peace and stability in the region.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Южная Осетия</kwd><kwd>угрозы безопасности</kwd><kwd>региональная система безопасности</kwd><kwd>рост военных расходов</kwd><kwd>сотрудничество с НАТО</kwd><kwd>Грузия</kwd><kwd>политическая борьба</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>South Ossetia</kwd><kwd>security threats</kwd><kwd>regional security system</kwd><kwd>growth of military spendings</kwd><kwd>cooperation with NATO</kwd><kwd>Georgia</kwd><kwd>political struggle</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Арзуманян Р., Багдасарян А.
