Abkhazia and South Ossetia support each other's aspiration to independence, Abkhazian President Sergei Bagapsh told Interfax on Monday.

Bagapsh said he would come to Tskhinvali on Monday to attend events marking the 15th anniversary of South Ossetia's independence.

"Also on Monday we'll sign an agreement on cooperation between the two republics," Bagapsh said.

Asked if his plans might change in the wake of reports about an attack on Tskhinvali early on Monday, Bagapsh said, "Nothing will change. We'll only be quick to set out to Tskhinvali."
