Ajaria has been relatively calm after its status as an autonomous republic within Georgia was revised in 2004 and its "strongman" leader Aslan Abashidze forced out of office.
The small and ethnically distinct regions of South Ossetia, Abkhazia, and Ajaria were incorporated into the Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic and--on the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991--remained as autonomous regions within the state of Georgia.
In other words, Georgia's demands over what it perceives as its "provinces" in Ossetia, Abkhazia, or Ajaria, adjacent to the Black Sea and Turkey, are demands that the West will support once it wins Russian support over other issues, most prominent of which is cooperation against North Korea and the constantly heated Iranian enrichment file.
