President Robert Mugabe today rejected Western criticism of his re-election and vowed to press ahead with nationalist economic policies transferring majority stakes in foreign-owned firms to blacks. Citing the United States and Britain, Mugabe said: “But now they, even as the whole of Africa is sending us messages of congratulations to say ‘well done’, they say the elections were not free. And where are they talking? London and Washington and Ottawa.” Insisting that he will go ahead with his indigenisation plans, Mugabe said:“All the time we must take into account our policy of indigenisation and empowerment. ……Our task is to look ahead. What we say we shall do, we will do.”
