Regional leaders to salvage Zimbabwe unity deal

Zimbabwe: Southern African leaders will meet Monday in a new push to salvage Zimbabwe’s stalled unity deal, four months after President Robert Mugabe and rival Morgan Tsvangirai agreed to share power.

South African President Kgalema Motlanthe will host the 15 state Southern African Development Community (SADC) summit in Pretoria after renewed talks to set up a new government failed in Harare last week.

The negotiations take place as the European Union slaps fresh sanctions on Mugabe’s rule, and as the country battles an unchecked cholera epidemic that has killed nearly 2,800 people and infected more than 50,000.

Regional leaders see the unity agreement, which calls for 84-year-old Mugabe to remain as president while Tsvangirai becomes prime minister, as the best chance to break Zimbabwe’s political stand-off and economic collapse.

But the deal is teetering on the verge of collapse over a protracted dispute over which party will control top public posts, including the home affairs ministry which oversees the police.
