Poul, Russians will retain ‘presence’ in the region regardless.
As of now, we may safely assume S. Ossetia and Abkhazia are–or are well on the way to being–ethnically cleansed to reflect a putatively ‘Russian’ population. Give them independence, okay. And then months later accept their petition to be recognized as part of a greater Russia.
Of course, introducing U.N. troops is always a nice touch.
