MDC getting impatient with Mugabe
2008-11-19
The Zimbabwean premier-designate has warned the president to keep his promise to form a coalition with the opposition Movement for Democratic Change. MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai said President Robert Mugabe should not form a government without him. "If he wants to proceed with a government without us, I know he knows that is unrealistic and that government will not be functional," Tsvangirai said on Tuesday.

He also pledged to use his majority in parliament to render such a government unworkable. "He needs us, we control parliament, and he needs a deal for his own sake, to salvage his own legacy," AFP quoted him as saying.

In mid-September, Mugabe and Tsvangirai signed an agreement to share power after a post-election dispute, but implementation of the deal has stalled amid a row over the division of key ministries.

In his trip to France, Tsvangirai urged European countries to put more pressure on Mugabe to break the political impasse in the country.
Yeah, get the Euros on your side. That'll help ...
