The above  contains the detailed description of the roots of the conflict ( in Russian, unfortunately). BUT... among other things it says:

In 1994  there was a treaty under the umbrella of the Mixed Control Commission between Russia, Georgia and  both Ossetias.  It defined the  Southern Ossetia's status and also de-facto recognized its limited sovereignity.  As such  the Georgian unilateral attack was forbidden.

End of the story, folks.
