Now that Zanu PF got what it wanted out of the GPA it is withdrawing its negotiators!

Minister Patrick Chinamasa told the Herald ZANU-PF “no longer (has) energy, inclination or willingness to maintain the team of negotiators as a forum of resolving any disagreements.” This throws the whole GPA into turmoil.

The GPA was unworkable for two reasons:
1) it gave Mugabe dictatorial powers.
2) MDC agreed to things like lifting the sanctions which they could not deliver and now Mugabe is holding the whole process hostage to these things.

MDC use its parliamentary majority to force through many of the democratic reforms. There have been many chances to force change in Zimbabwe what has been lacking is visionary leaders to make the most of these chances!
