Tsvangirai will not pull out of government

Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai will not pull out of the inclusive government despite flagrant violations of the Global Political Agreement (GPA) by President Robert Mugabe, reports said today.  He told supporters in Mabvuku on Tuesday: “Who doesn’t know that this unity Government is a shared compromise? Mugabe alone cannot constitute the GPA, he came begging me to form the transitional government with him. If Mugabe thinks we can leave this transitional Government then he must forget, it.  It is him who is supposed to leave it because the MDC won the elections; we don’t want to be diverted from our goal which is to respect the will of the people.”
