BBC 4 Georgia's new president has sworn to rein-in breakaway states Abkhazia and South Osetia. Both breakaway states have, in their turn, sworn not to give in without a fight. In the Soviet-backed South Ossetia, Simon is followed everywhere by state security (still referred to here as 'the KGB'). As the first foreign journalist given access to Russian arms dumps, he visits a warehouse with 30,000 shells and is shown a huge collection of air-to-surface missiles. Could South Ossetia's fight for autonomy take a violent turn. Aired: August 21, 2005
