Occupied territories of Georgia
Occupied territories of Georgia () are the territories occupied by Russia after the Russo-Georgian War in 2008. They consist of the regions of Abkhazia and the former South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast of Soviet Georgia (currently divided between several administrative divisions of independent Georgia), whose status is a matter of international dispute.
Treaty of Moscow (1920)
As Georgia was moving towards independence from the Soviet Union, the Georgian government under Zviad Gamsakhurdia addressed the President of Russia Boris Yeltsin stating that "the only legitimate framework for relations" between Russia and Georgia could be the 1920 treaty. Moscow refused and Georgia declared Soviet troops in Georgia an occupation force.
