DA undeterred by Mnangagwa-administration’s “disapproval”
30 January 2019
The Democratic Alliance (DA) notes a letter by the Zimbabwean government addressed to DA Leader, Mmusi Maimane, expressing its disappointment that the Party and the Southern African Partnership for Democratic Change (SAPDC), has taken such an “aggressive stance” towards the Zimbabwean government’s violence against citizens and protestors.
The Mnangagwa-administration expressed disapproval in our escalation of matters to the International Criminal Court and United Nations Human Rights Council.
The DA wishes to reaffirm once more that the unlawful actions of the Zimbabwean government citizens merit immediate and strong action, not the quiet diplomacy President Ramaphosa has adopted.
The ANC’s silence on this matter does nothing but prolong the pain of Zimbabwean citizens and we cannot accept such a poor regard of human rights.
