order, organization of local self-governance and environmental protection. At the same time South Ossetia would
have a voice in the national structures of government as
well, with a constitutional guarantee of representation in
the judicial and constitutional-judicial branches and in
the Parliament. Georgia would commit to improving the
economic and social conditions of South Ossetian inhabitants. Saakashvili proposed a transitional 3-year conict resolution period, during which time mixed Georgian
and Ossetian police forces, under the guidance and auspices of international organizations, would be established
and Ossetian forces would gradually be integrated into a
united Georgian Armed Force. Saakashvili also said that
the international community should play a more signicant and visible role in solving this conict.[31][32]
Zurab Zhvanias premature death in February 2005 was a
setback in the conict resolution.[33]

On 12 November 2006, presidential election and referendum were held in South Ossetia. The separatistcontrolled part of the region re-elected Eduard Kokoity
as de facto president and voted for independence from
Georgia.[6] In the areas under Georgias control, the Ossetian opposition organized rival polls electing Dmitry
Sanakoyev, as an alternative president and voted for negotiations with Georgia on a future federal agreement.[37]
The pro-Georgian government was never able to draw signicant support away from the separatist authorities.[38]

by attacking the Kodori Gorge, held by Georgia.[64] Russian forces occupied the Georgian cities of Zugdidi,[65]
Senaki,[66] Poti,[67] and Gori (the last one after the ceasere was negotiated).[68] Russian Black Sea Fleet blockaded the Georgian coast.[53]
Both during and after the war, South Ossetian forces and
irregular militia conducted a campaign of ethnic cleansing against Georgians in South Ossetia,[69] with Georgian villages around Tskhinvali being destroyed after the
war had ended.[70] The war displaced 192,000 people,[71]
and while many were able to return to their homes after
the war, a year later around 30,000 ethnic Georgians remained displaced.[72] In an interview published in Kommersant, South Ossetian leader Eduard Kokoity said he
would not allow Georgians to return.[73][74]
President of France Nicolas Sarkozy negotiated a ceasere agreement on 12 August 2008.[75] On 17 August,
Russian president Dmitry Medvedev announced that Russian forces would begin to pull out of Georgia the following day.[76] Russian forces withdrew from the buer zones
adjacent to Abkhazia and South Ossetia on 8 October and
control over them was transferred to the European Union
Monitoring Mission in Georgia.[77]

the spring of the following year, the Caucasian Bureau of
the All-Russian Communist Party formed a special South
Ossetian Revolutionary Committee to lead an armed revolt
against the Georgian government. A Russian-sponsored
Ossete force crossed the border from Vladikavkaz in June
1920 and attacked the Georgian Army and Peoples Guard.
The Georgians reacted with vigour and defeated the insurgents and their supporters in a series of hard-fought battles. Five thousand people perished in the ghting and
20,000 Ossetes ed into Soviet Russia. The Georgian Peoples Guard displayed a frenzy of chauvinistic zeal during
the mopping-up operations, many villages being burnt to
the ground and large areas of fertile land ravaged and depopulated.
