Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe's opposition leader, is hours away from being sworn in as Prime Minister.
Its been five months since Tsvangirai signed a power-sharing deal with Robert Mugabe, the country's president.
Al Jazeera's Haru Mutasa reports from Harare.
There are targeted sanctions against about 200 corrupt ZANU and government officials and their businesses. And even these sanctions are not UN endorsed. They are only by US and EU countries. This is why ZANU thieves, line Grace Mugabe can still travel to China and other countries. The poverty in Zimbabwe is not because of 'sanctions' that do not affect absolute majority of the people, but because ZANU destroyed private businesses and forced most of educated, productive people out of the country.

Once again, specifically for those who still does not get it: there are no sanctions against ordinary Zimbabweans. They can freely travel where they want. Compare it with sanctions against Rhodesia: Rhodesian passport has not been recognised by any country except SA. There are no sanctions against fair Zimbabwean businesses; they can freely export or import products. Compare it with sanctions on Rhodesia: all exports to Rhodesia and almost all imports have been fully banned by UN resolution.

6Mar09 SAD day for Zimbabwe! I read online news PM Tsvangirayi had asked for Western Sanctions on Zimbabwe to be removed, but Pres Obama had slapped Zimbabwe with EXTENDED year of Pres Bush's SATANIC SANCTIONS. Later in evening I learned from CNN: "Zimbabwe PM Tsvangirai has been injured in a car crash which killed his wife Susan. Pres Mugabe visited PM Tsvangirai in hospital". I say "RIP Mrs Susan Tsvangirai". Zimbabwe unite in this TURMOIL of 1 more year DEATHS & SANCTIONS

The remedy is very simple there. Stop murdering white people and taking their lands. Arm women there.
