Mugabe says US is insane

Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front leader Robert Mugabe today described the United States as insane for criticising his push for elections. “For anyone to suggest that our elections must not be held even after the expiry of the term of parliament, because some party is arguing for reforms of our security forces, is a mad argument, completely.” Mugabe went on: “Keep your pink nose out of our affairs, please…Where do you get that audacity to open your mouth and try to sermonise us….Your prisons are still full of blacks. Where is your democracy? There is lots of racism in your country.”
