Russia recognised the independence of Abkhazia on 26 August 2008. This was followed by the annulment of the 1994 ceasefire agreement and the termination of UN and OSCE monitoring missions. On 28 August 2008, the Parliament of Georgia passed a resolution declaring Abkhazia a Russian-occupied territory.
Abkhazia is a very safe place for solo travel. It’s a great advantage if you can communicate in Russian, as foreign tourism seems to be non-existant as for now. Almost 100% of visitors are Russians. Russian language is de facto the lingua franca and the only language that is understood by all inhabitants.
