Russia agrees to peace settlement

Russia on Tuesday agreed to a France-brokered peace settlement of the Caucasus crisis that could spell an end to Georgia’s sovereignty over its breakaway territories of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. After several hours of talks, the Presidents of Russia and France, Dmitry Medvedev and Nicolas Sarkozy, who holds the European Union presidency, agreed on principles for ending the crisis that was triggered by Georgia’s massive offensive to reassert control over South Ossetia.
