TBILISI, August 17. (RIA Novosti) -The Joint Control Commission for Georgian-Ossetian settlement will meet on Tuesday in the Georgian State Chancellery in Tbilisi, Georgia's state minister for conflict settlement Georgy Khaindrava told journalists.

"The Commission's co-chairmen will arrive in Tbilisi and we will meet Georgian Prime Minister Zurab Zhvaniya," he said.

"If at the meeting the parties agree on different issues, tomorrow Zurab Zhvaniya may meet de facto leader of South Ossetia (Georgia's breakaway republic) Eduard Kokoity," Khaindrava pointed out.

Kokoity's special envoy for conflict settlement Vazha Khachapuridze will also hold talks with Georgian leadership in Tbilisi.

"I am going to Tbilisi for negotiations. We have to decide a number of vital issues," Khachapuridze told journalists at the Georgian check-point Tkviavi, when crossing the administrative border with Georgia on Monday.

He did not specify whom he intended to meet and what issues he was to discuss.

In the zone of Georgian-Ossetian conflict skirmishes went out throughout last night, killing a Georgian serviceman and wounding three, RIA Novosti learned from Alexander Sukhitashvili, police chief of the Shida Kartli region, bordering on South Ossetia.
