The conflict has already forced about 40,000 people from their homes in areas around the conflict zone, an International Committee of the Red Cross spokeswoman told AFP. Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili has accepted 'almost all' of the EU's proposals to end its conflict with Russia, French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner told French radio from Tbilisi.
