Zimbabwe's power-sharing government: Telling it like it is
JUST last month, a seemingly upbeat Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe’s prime minister, told a conference of potential investors in South Africa that his country was “no longer a basket case” and was at last “on the road to recovery”. The leader of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), the former opposition party, conceded that not all was well in his 18-month-old power-sharing arrangement with Robert Mugabe, the president, and the ruling Zanu-PF party. But at least he and his erstwhile sworn enemy were now working together in a transitional government, which had allowed “normalcy” to return. “We are beginning to have hope,” Mr Tsvangirai declared.(4)
