"Russia has received from the countries of the European Union, and France which is chairman of the European Union, a guarantee of the non-use of force by Georgia," said Medvedev after meeting French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

Medvedev said there was an agreement in principle to deploy a 200-strong EU monitoring contingent after he met Sarkozy and an EU delegation at his official residence outside Moscow to discuss the fallout of the Georgia conflict.
