  • In Zimbabwe, Deal Likely to Fly or Fail This Week: The New York Times. Zimbabwe?s president, Robert Mugabe, and its prime minister in waiting, Morgan Tsvangirai, have not agreed on much since they signed a deal four months ago to run the government together. But they seem to find common ground on at least one thing: their power-sharing deal will either come to fruition this week or collapse. If it does fail, there will be no clean outcome. Mr. Mugabe?s party can form a government on its own, but the opposition and a small breakaway faction control a majority in Parliament that could thwart his ability to pass a budget or get legislation adopted. The men are scheduled to meet Monday in Harare, Zimbabwe?s capital, with the current and past presidents of South Africa present to mediate.

  • Zimbabwe opposition leader to meet Mugabe for power-sharing talks: Guardian. Zimbabwe' s opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai said today he remains committed to a power-sharing deal and will meet President Robert Mugabe next week to try to resolve their differences. South Africa's president, Kgalema Motlanthe, will also attend the talks, which are seen as crucial if further decline in Zimbabwe is to be averted. The country's rapidly crumbling infrastructure has allowed a normally preventable cholera outbreak to claim more than 2,100 lives, while nearly half the population requires food aid. Tsvangirai, who will return to Zimbabwe on Saturday for the first time since November, said he regarded Mugabe, 84, "as part of the problem but also part of the solution" . He added: "I still believe that a political agreement offers the best means of preventing Zimbabwe from becoming a failed state. I am committed to forming a new inclusive government in Zimbabwe and all I lack is a willing partner."
