No Progress Made Between Mugabe and Tsvangirai

There was no progress after the first day of talks in South Africa.

The situation in Zimbabwe has now reached the tipping point. Essential services including health, sanitation and education have collapsed completely. There is mass starvation in the country as most people are surviving on one meal or less a day. Deaths due to the cholera and the HIV/ AIDS epidemic are rising rapidly, exacerbated by shortages of clean water, food and medicines. Additionally, the suppression of democratic freedoms through abductions, torture and other sinister forms of intimidation continues unabated, indicating total breakdown of the rule of law.

At this critical juncture, SADC and African governments must act resolutely to protect the people of Zimbabwe who are being subjected to a passive genocide. The suffering of the people of Zimbabwe cannot be ignored any longer. Sign our petition and add your voice to this call for action which will be sent to President Kgalema Motlanthe in his capacity as Chairperson, Southern African Development Community (SADC).
