Politics in Abkhazia is dominated by the conflict with Georgia , of which the territory became ''de facto'' independent but remains a ''de jure'' part of Georgia . Politics of Separatist Abkhazia takes place in a framework of a Presidential Representative Democratic Republic , wherein the President Of Abkhazia is both Head Of State and Head Of Government , and of a pluriform multi-party system. Executive Power is exercised by the government. Legislative Power is vested in both the Government and parliament. LATEST DE FACTO SEPARATIST PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION On 3 October 2004 presidential elections were held in Abkhazia. In the elections, Russia evidently supported Raul Khajimba , the prime-minister backed by seriously ailing outgoing separatist President Vladislav Ardzinba . Posters of Russia's President Vladimir Putin together with Khajimba, who like Putin had worked as a KGB official, were everywhere in Sukhumi. Deputies of Russia's parliament and Russian singers, lead by Joseph Kobzon , both a deputy and a popular songster, came to Abkhazia compaigning for Khajimba. Still, on 12 October Abkhazia's Supreme Court, after a series of contradictory decisions by the Electoral Committee, recognized that the new president would be a businessman Sergei Bagapsh , accused by his rival's supporters of being pro-Georgian. (Georgia doesn't recognize any separatist candidates or even the elections). Abkhazia's outgoing President Ardzinba claimed the decision was illegal and made under pressure from supporters of Bagapsh. The decision was cancelled by the Supreme Court the night of the same day. When supporters of Raul Khajimba seized the building of the Supreme Court and destroyed the protocols from local electoral constituencies new elections were prescribed. Soon the Supreme Court cancelled the later decision, and again named Bagapsh the new president. His supporters captured a local TV station, while Raul Khajimba 's supporters took control over the parliament's building. Outgoing president Ardzinba replaced Raul Khajimba as a prime-minister with Nodar Khashba , who, before this appointment served in the Ministry For Extraordinary Situations . On 5 December the presidential candidates Sergei Bagapsh and Raul Khadjimba agreed to hold new elections. In these elections they would run on a joint ticket, with Khadjimba as vice presidential candidate. These elections were not recognized by any State and International Organizations.
