JOHANNESBURG – A delegation from the African National Congress (ANC) that visited Zimbabwe said it will return to the country for talks with opposition and civic rights groups.
General Secretary Ace Magashule said this at Wednesday’s meeting between the ANC and the Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) in Harare.
Magashule confirmed having received requests to meet with other stakeholders in Zimbabwe.
He has told reporters that they include the main opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) Alliance, the Zimbabwe Human Rights Non-Governmental Organizations Forum and opposition politician Simba Makoni.
Two envoys sent by President Cyril Ramaphosa to Harare last month were criticized for not meeting with a wider range of people.
The ruling ZANU-PF insists there is no crisis in the country, despite growing poverty and criticism of rights abuses.
Magashule said his delegation and the ruling Zimbabwe party agreed that meeting with others would not be a problem.
However, meetings will not take place during this visit; Magashule said arrangements will be made to return.
