Former United States ambassador to Zimbabwe, Christopher Dell, told the State Department just before his departure in July 2007 to stay the course and prepare for change because the end was nigh for President Robert Mugabe. According to confidential papers released by Wikileaks today, Dell said Mugabe had run out of options that had kept him in power for 27 years. He also said the United States could not rely on Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai. He was brave and committed but was “not readily open to advice, indecisive and with questionable judgment in selecting those around him.”
