In a unique situation in the Russian Federation's political history, the constitutionally powerful president was now flanked with a highly influential prime minister (Putin), who also remained the country's most popular politician. Previous prime ministers had proven to be almost completely subordinate to the president and none of them had enjoyed strong public approval, with <a href="/wiki/Yevgeny_Primakov" title="Yevgeny Primakov">Yevgeny Primakov</a> and Putin's previous tenure (1999–2000) as prime minister under <a href="/wiki/Boris_Yeltsin" title="Boris Yeltsin">Boris Yeltsin</a> being the only exceptions.<a href="#cite_note-willerton2-26">[24]</a> Journalists quickly dubbed the new system with a practically dual-headed executive as "government by tandem" or "tandemocracy", with Medvedev and Putin called the "ruling tandem".<a href="#cite_note-treisman-15">[13]</a> <a href="/wiki/Daniel_Treisman" title="Daniel Treisman">Daniel Treisman</a> has argued that early in Medvedev's presidency, Putin seemed ready to disengage and started withdrawing to the background.

Intensifying artillery attacks by the South Ossetians broke a 1992 ceasefire agreement. To put an end to these attacks, the Georgian army units were sent in to the South Ossetian conflict zone on 7 August.

Later on the same day, a peace deal brokered by the French and EU president, <a href="/wiki/Nicolas_Sarkozy" title="Nicolas Sarkozy">Nicolas Sarkozy</a>, was signed between the warring parties. On 26 August, after being unanimously passed by the <a href="/wiki/State_Duma" title="State Duma">State Duma</a>, Medvedev signed a decree <a href="/wiki/International_recognition_of_Abkhazia_and_South_Ossetia" title="International recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia">recognising South Ossetia and Abkhazia</a> as independent states.
