Sochi Agreement

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Russia brokered a ceasefire and negotiated the Agreement in 1992. The agreement primarily established a cease-fire between the both Georgian and South Ossetian forces, but it also defined a zone of conflict around the South Ossetian capital of Tskhinvali and established a security corridor along the border of the as yet unrecognized South Ossetian territories. The Agreement also created a Joint Control Commission and a peacekeeping body, the Joint Peacekeeping Forces group (JPKF). The JPKF was put under Russian command and was composed of peacekeepers from Georgia, Russia, and North Ossetia (as the separatist South Ossetian government was still unrecognized; South Ossetian peacekeepers, however, served in the North Ossetian contingent). In addition, the OSCE did agree to monitor the ceasefire and to facilitate negotiations.
