Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has ordered an end to military operations against Georgia, the Kremlin says. He told officials he had taken the decision to end the campaign after restoring security for civilians and peacekeepers in South Ossetia. However, Russia has been highly critical of Georgia's leadership, and there were no signs of imminent talks. Before the announcement, there were fresh reports of Russian warplanes bombing the Georgian town of Gori.

It appears it may not be the beginning of the end after all. Russia appear to have withdrawn but will be prepared to return if Georgian forces re occupy South Ossetia. Looks like good news for once.

Before this, Bush warned Russia "must" pull back, the word unacceptable also was used to express US position.
