  • Abkhazia's independence

  • Recognition by Russia

  • Economic reform

  • New constitution

Answer

Recognition by Russia was a significant event during Bagapsh's presidency in 2008. This recognition followed the Russo-Georgian War, which resulted in the breakaway of Abkhazia and South Ossetia from Georgia. Russia's recognition of Abkhazia's independence solidified its status as a de facto independent state, despite international condemnation and lack of recognition by most other countries.
