Zimbabwe's power-sharing talks unlikey to resume soon

Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader, Morgan Tsvangirai says Zimbabwe's power-sharing talks with Zanu PF have broken down and are unlikely to resume soon, South Africa's Talk Radio 702 reported. The talks are deadlocked as Mugabe and Tsvangirai can not agree on how they should share executive powers.

Tsvangirai is quoted as saying in an interview he "was not aware of plans" for post-election negotiations to resume soon.

Explaining why he refused to sign a power-sharing agreement with Mugabe, Tsvangirai said: "There was an attempt to fragment the cabinet. With some ministries reporting to the president and some reporting to the prime minister."

"In this case the economic and social ministries would go to the prime minister. The security ministries will go to the president."

The continued deadlock is not helping Zimbabwe at all, the economic crisis in the country is getting worse everyday and the future doesn't look good. The whole nation had their hopes for economic recovery on the signing of this agreement, but what now then Zimbabwe?

What are the prospects of economic recovery in Zimbabwe? Feel free to post your comments.
