The Russian armed forces stationed along the Enguri river dividing Abkhazia and the rest of Georgia were called peacekeepers under the UN mandate but they've never been such in reality.
If this term means separation of warrior sides and prevention of further hostile actions, Russia didn't play an important role: before these troops were deployed in July 94, there had been a ceasefire in Abkhazia since September 93. Therefore, the Russian forces turned into border guards only. They also did nothing in May 1998 to stop Abkhaz assault on Gali district which resulted in about 100 deaths and 30 000 refugees among the local Georgian population. On the political level, when the Kremlin introduced a visa regime with Georgia, it didn't affect this breakaway region. Indirectly Moscow thus acknowledged that it didn't respect the territorial integrity of its neighbouring country. Next it set to issue passports to local citizens which is a blatant violation of international law. It also manned local government structures with its personnel. General Zajtsev was appointed Chief of General Staff for example. Russia unilaterally withdraw from CIS agreement imposing sanctions on Abkhazia and recognized the government in Sukhumi as a legal entity it could directly deal with. And finally after war in Tskhinvali area broke out, it attacked a last remaining Georgian-held territory in Abkhazia called the Kodori Gorge.
Well before the recognition of Abkhazia itself Moscow acted as its protector. Russia from the outset consistently sought to conduct a creeping annexation policy and it's unjust to say that Kosovo was a trigger. It may have hastened events only.
Peacekeeper and madiator need to be unbiased and can in no way be applied to Russian combat units in Abkhazia. In international practice countries are not involved in peacekeeping operations in neighbouring states. Russia might be a peacekeeper in Sudan, Lebanon, Somalia and other conflict areas worldwide, but definitely not in neighbourhood where it pursues a veiled policy of expansion.

![[Image: Republics_of_Russia]](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republics_of_Russia)
Russia will be left as a grey area on this image after recognising all of the above listed republics.
Returning the snatched territories to Poland and Germany and Japan is another step forward...

Lenus why are you so anxious about Russia? I often visit one of the regions you listed. And what? They don't seem sad being with Russia. You should explain them in person how bad they live. :-(

hope you're not serious about that 
Do you understand what 5,000 ethnic groups means? You wanna let them create their own micro-states? Hmm... I wonder how difficult it would be for children in schools to learn geography and remember 5,000 Asian states :banghead

But imagine how it would help to create working places to have soooo many independent states takes as much diplomatic employes to create embasies . And it is only one region .

workplaces? These would be virtual workplaces, because public posts are paid from public money, while public money come from private money. That's why the budget will be empty :oO

Actually everything seems to be going vice versa... I noticed that the North American nation (taken as a whole) are more friendly than Europeans and Asians. They never complain about independence and things like that, they like their status

The current crisis might generate some power descentralization.

Ones again!! Somebody wants to separate Russia I saw. So good luck, in this case you will be destroyed as everybody before you ( I mean the Georgian post about Siberia, Altay ect independence). The world is already knows who was started the war. So like Americans like to say,-Good guys win, bad loose. Why SO and Abkhazia are not crying?- Hey world we want to be with Georgia, and this Russians are aggressors!!!
Georgians could not kill 1500 people? They destroyed whole city, and it is miracle that they don’t kill more. Stop this Georgian bullshit, my friends was on this war, when they came to Zchinvally and pushed out this Georgian maniacs, everybody who stayed alive thanked them and called heroes.
Everybody needs to be proud of something, every nation needs to be proud of something, I see many nations that proud with nothing but hate to Russia.

I think every nation is indeed proud of something. Russia for its power, Georgia for its, maybe, wine, Belarus for its leader ... it's just that these feelings of demnity shouldn't be compared to these feelings must not disregard the demnity of other states.
If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did."

Just because European countries are smaller in dimensions than Russia, we can't be called elfs. And which is the oak you are talking about?

Only facts They are attackted our citizens, destroied the whole city, we were punished them, that is all about this war, it wasn't a war ectualy, just because no match. My friends served in the 58 army of RF forcies and in our NAVY. I can not write all things that they said to me,it will take quite a lot of time. But when they came to the one of the yard with the support of BMP one woman ran from the basement to them with a words "Russians have come!!!" and people went from the basement, and told that they were hideing from the Georgians. In that time Ossetians with the support of our artillery and army pushed this basters back to hell,and liberated the city. Why Ossetians thing that Russians had saved them? Think about it

But you probably realize that not all people living in South Ossetia have the same opinion about Georgians. Maybe the village where your friends were was attacked accidentally by Georgians? I mean, they couldn't just kill people because they're Rusians.

Newrussiantown,
You better cease your miserable mumbling turning into your own mockery and tell the audience what your bastard military have been doing to the Chechen nation for years. Also inform others how your bastard soldiers stole scores of toilet bowls from conquered military bases - in response hundreds of them were dumped at your embassy gate by vanquished but still oddly humor-gifted Georgians - as well as child toys from ransacked houses of civilians before you carry on with a rambling discourse about your brave troops.
I bet if you were Georgian you'd be a poor lackey of Saakashvili as stinky politicians like him or Putin have intoxicated the minds of their supporters and now make them say all kind of crap.

It is actually very simple. In about 2011 Russia will have to re- new its lease of Ukranian city of Sevastopol, naval base. Given how friendly russia-Ukrainian relations were I don't think Ukraine is going to keep Russian base on Ukraine teritory.
So Russia need new pupet country on the shore of Black sea, Abhazia fits the bill perfectly.
I am willing to bet that when Russia will get the boot out of Ukraine it will base its ships in Abhazia.
