PACE calls for independent international investigation into the war between Georgia and Russia

In a resolution, the Assembly declared that both Georgia and Russia had violated Council of Europe principles and values, and their commitment to settle conflicts by peaceful means. Both sides were responsible for violations of human rights and humanitarian law.
The parliamentarians pointed to “a disproportionate use of armed force by Georgia” and said the Russian counter-attack “equally failed to respect the principle of proportionality”.
The Assembly also called on Russia to withdraw its recognition of the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, and to allow EU and OSCE monitors to have access to both territories. It said these, as well as full implementation of the EU-brokered ceasefire agreement, were “minimum conditions” for a meaningful dialogue.
