Hi Sara--jb6 stirs things up as usual -:))))) As for Abkhazia, yes I agree that it's time to set a time line for Russian troops to leave the region and reintegrate Abkhazia into Georgia. It's ridiculous to fight Islamic separatism in Chechnya and throughout North Caucasus while supporting another kind of separatism in the neighboring country.
The fun historical thing is that in 1930's Abkhazia was a part of Russian Federation. Stalin was once vacationing there and after some party, decided to write a decree to turn Abkhazia from Russian Soviet Republic to Georgian Soviet Republic. Since he was an absolute tyrant, his decree took effect immediately with some rubberstamp approval of the Supreme Soviet. There were many other stories of the entire regions being transferred between Soviet Republics without any referendum and other "inconveniences" of democratic process--like Crimea passed from Russia to Ukraine in 1954 as a gift to 300 year anniversary of 1654 Khmelnitsky Russian-Ukrainian alliance that eventually ended in absorbtion of Ukraine into Russian Empire.
However, internationally recognized borders must be respected no matter how they came to be.
