Dmitry Medoev told reporters that he will lead a delegation to Nauru which is one of only four countries recognising the Caucausian territory as an independent state.
The South Ossetian government news service said the visit followed an invitation by Nauru's president Baron Waqa who met South Ossetia's leaders in Moscow in November.
The South Ossetian president Anatoly Bibilov said at the Moscow meeting Mr Waqa confirmed that nothing would get Nauru to change its intentions and it was ready to promote South Ossetia's interests at the United Nations.
