FACTBOX: What is the EU/OSCE peace plan for S.Ossetia?
(Reuters) - What is in the South Ossetian peace plan being pushed by the European Union and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE)?
Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili has signed the plan and French President Nicolas Sarkozy will discuss it with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Tuesday.
European diplomats are hoping the plan offers a way out of the conflict in Georgia, which has raised concerns by the speed at which it has escalated towards a full blown war in the Caucasus, host to a major oil pipeline from the Caspian.
The four-point plan was read out by OSCE Chairman, Finnish Foreign Minister Alexander Stubb, at a briefing in Moscow on Tuesday.
Following are the key principles and elements:
*Territorial integrity of Georgia.
*International monitoring of the below commitments, probably by OSCE and United Nations.
1) Immediate and unconditional cessation of hostilities ie a ceasefire.
2) Access for the provision of humanitarian relief.
3) Commitment not to use force and to refrain from inflammatory rhetoric
4) Withdrawal of all armed personal to positions prevailing before the start of the current hostilities.
