Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe and MDC Leader Morgan Tsvangirai Hold Last-Ditch Talks for Power-Sharing Agreement

Zimbabwe’s President Robert Mugabe and Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai are currently holding talks in what is seen as a last-ditch effort between the two sides to finally resolve a power-sharing agreement that has failed to be implemented for more than four months.

Mugabe has said he was unwilling to make further concessions to the existing deal until the unity government takes hold yet Tsvangirai has refused to form that government until an issue over cabinet appointments is resolved.

As part of their power-sharing deal signed in September both sides were to appoint ministers to cabinet positions but Mugabe quickly placed ZANU-PF ministers in key posts, angering Tsvangirai who then refused to work with the president.

The political stalemate in Zimbabwe has left the country devastated as several countries have refused to work with Mugabe. In turn, Mugabe has made it difficult for humanitarian aid to arrive in the country to combat food shortages and a cholera outbreak that has left more than 2,200 dead. Basic services have been left in shambles as the economy continues to tumble and inflation hits staggering numbers.

Monday’s talks, to be attended by the presidents of South Africa and Mozambique, could result in a complete breakdown of the power-sharing agreement as many fear Mugabe will go ahead with forming a government unilaterally an understanding isn’t reached.
