The government refused yesterday to support the British call for tough sanctions against Zimbabwe.
Foreign Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma said African leaders were expressing their stand against sanctions at the Group of Eight (G-8) meeting in Japan.
"Our leaders are at the G-8 meeting as we speak, and all of them who are there have expressed reserve on (the proposed United Nations Security Council sanctions on Zimbabwe) to the G-8 leaders," she said.
She would not comment on the call by British Foreign Secretary David Miliband on Monday at the University of SA for a beefing up of the facilitation team led by President Thabo Mbeki with a permanent African Union representative, recognition of the results of the March 29 election results won by the Movement for Democratic Change, and a UN envoy to Zimbabwe to assess poverty created by President Robert Mugabe when he pulled the plug on foreign aid agencies supplying food in that country.
At the SA-UK Bilateral Forum meeting, Dlamini-Zuma said: "The crisis in Zimbabwe needs all the Zimbabweans to work together to extricate themselves."
Asked if SA recognised Mugabe's victory following the June 27 election , she said SA had for a long time said Zimbabwe needed an "inclusive government to get out of their problems".

The 'parasite' nations (former colonial 'resource poor nations') who compose the 'G-8' ARE DETERMINED TO STOP THE UNIFICATION OF SADC into a single, giant, super-power.
That is why Zimbabwe is used as a 'wrench' in order to continue the division that the Euro-colonialists are famous for.
We notice the same racist scheme in East Africa and in Rwanda, and in West Africa.
Europeans, Semetic nations and parasitic elements from the East are behind much of the divisdion in Africa.
Nations like Nigeria HAS TO REALIZE THAT THEY CAN'T JOIN AND JUMP INTO THE 'MIDDLE EAST' GROUP, WHILE WATCHING NATIONS IN... [Read Full Text]
Western countries want Mugabe ousted from power for two reasons. First, Mugabe sent his military to DR Congo in the 1990's to halt the invasion and occupation of DR Congo by the armies of Rwanda, Burundi, and Uganda. The invasion was financially and militarily sponsored by the USA and UK with the aim of effecting a regime change in DR Congo so that western countries would exploit (loot) the natural resources of DR Congo at will. Up until the time of the invasion, Zimbabwe had been buying its jet fighters from England, with an agreement that the sellers of those... [Read Full Text]
