Tbilisi Claims to Offer ‘New Plan’ for S.Ossetia Resolution

Georgian State Minister for Conflict Resolution Issues Merab Antadze met with deputy prime minister of breakaway South Ossetia Boris Chochiev in Tskhinvali on March 6 to present “new proposals on the comprehensive resolution” of the South Ossetian conflict, the State Minister’s press office reported.

Officials have declined to offer details of the plan, saying only that the document is based on Tbilisi’s already existing peace plan with “new details” added.

According to the State Minister’s press office, the Georgian side has submitted the plan to all members of the Joint Control Commission (JCC), a negotiating body that includes negotiators from the Georgian, South Ossetian, Russia’s North Ossetian, and Russian  sides.

The Georgian side hopes the plan will be discussed during an informal “information session” of the JCC scheduled for March 20-23 in Istanbul.
