that ministers to submit voluntary resignations this is something that was seen as a sort of concession in all of branch to the demands of demonstrators that have been protesting in capital and in other parts of the country for more than for more than a week the atmosphere among the demonstrations that were taking place on saturday was festive but there were protests nonetheless a lot of the anger here in the country's capital and in other parts of the city has to do with the response from military despite a military force curfew being lifted there were still pockets of tension in places in the city where even on saturday peaceful protests were being met with water cannons from police that are dispersing peaceful protesters and the anger stems from the fact that at this point there have been at least 20 people that have been killed within the context of these demonstrations there been hundreds of people who have been injured even by firearms and there have been thousands of of arrests more than 5000 people arrested within the context of these demonstrations so at this point the anger despite the festivities there's still an underlying anger that

hong kong chief executive has rejected this saying that one of her concerns is the reaction of hong kong's 30000 strong police force they say they themselves are victims of violence they queues protesters among other things of throwing rocks and petrol bombs at police stations and not the police come off the side thank you but that would be suicide by the people of course could of course. police have used what you can in tear gas rubber bullets and even live rounds against protesters not long ago hung on species were fired. guarded them highly respected they were seen as one of the most professional institutions in the city but over the past 5 months or protests their reputation has deteriorated dramatically. people in level have stayed out late into the night after the 10th day of anti-government protests security forces were called to dismantle roadblocks in beirut protest as a civil disobedience campaign until the government resigns leaders are accused of

with hashem alba do stay with us. the prime minister. literally introducing the british on the 31st of october and making this country the greatest place on a timely departure moved in a follow up with drama of bricks it on al-jazeera just sanctions against zimbabwe be lifted the president blames the u.s. and e.u. embargoes for with playing the economy not say the government's quit it so who's right this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program. zimbabwe used to be known as the breadbasket of africa some economists describe it now as

a basket case inflation is nearly 300 percent and millions of zimbabweans are going hungry because they cannot afford basics the government blames international sanctions. for. president. declared friday a national holiday he urged a show to support a call on the u.s. and the european union to lift sanctions imposed when robert mugabe was leader of the ruling zone or p.f. says the restrictions are a crime against humanity and bears and government leaders and businesses are choking the economy opponents blame zimbabwe's troubles on. failure. oh. well.

actually sanctions aren't just. especially toy economy to everybody but what they're doing a lot of our industries are to sanction creating to create jobs because every country needs and i just want the people that they see to get to. what you said this. or that head to look at it like. our what country he's only. we want. the u.s. and e.u. impose sanctions against government leaders and companies nearly 20 years ago after political crackdown by the president robert mugabe the u.s. financial and travel restrictions apply to 56 businesses and 85 people including

president but u.s. arms exports to zimbabwe are also banned the e.u. also banned the sale of military equipment that could be used for oppression and froze the assets and impose travel bans on sons in bob wins linked to the government the extend the sanctions for another year in february the u.s. has since impose sanctions on zimbabwe's state security minister saying he was involved in gross violations of human rights. let's bring in our guests in johannesburg by sky aditi program manager of foreign policy of the south african institute of international affairs and in london patricia. yorka you care a present over the zimbabwean opposition party movement for democratic change their representative from zimbabwe is running parties on a pier forced you to join the panel but unfortunately had to cancel welcome to

a does it how significant are the sanctions imposed on the zimbabwean government these are sanctions that have been imposed really actually since 2000. what happens is that they continue to be updated based on persons of interest and potential sort of. you know sort of who that was deemed to be sort of corrupt and so on and obviously also it's been adapted to to accommodate the new sort of political leadership that has taken over in zimbabwe it is principally this 2 sets of sanctions one that levelled at the from the e.u. side which at this point in time is only really relevant to greece mugabe and then there's the us tax sanctions which are targeted to various at a specific list of are of individuals and companies and state owned enterprises and then of course there's the dera. sort of conditions which are not. sanctions

necessarily but they do impose certain restrictions on the way in which the u.s. behaves in terms of. sort of this relief really i get really is about that but tricia what kind of impacts you see in the near future. before i actually answer that question i wanted to thank him bob when people for standing up against the regime yesterday i think that this stance that the current government had taken in collaboration with sadeq over the north sanctions march didn't work yesterday the people of zimbabwe stood up and they stood against the regime and by so doing they sent a really big message to say we are no longer interested in hearing your

propaganda about the sanctions that they they they sing about all the time and with regard to. any impacts. i think that in terms of these targeted sanctions against individuals and organizations that are owned by by these individuals any lifting of those sanctions would create a very unsafe environment. in i think what we need to talk about today the p.f. imposed sanctions on the people of zimbabwe in the form of our corruption and the lack of rural flaw as well as the gross human rights violations that we have seen accel rate since 2017

aditi the government was expected to see a huge number of people show up for the rally against the sanctions that didn't happen could be an indication the government is failing to sort of win the hearts and minds of its own people. well yes i think that. my colleagues i think that there is a widespread acknowledgement that. you know there is enough is enough from the that the population of the general population are in the back where i think what i'm after is that people are not really buying into the kind of rhetoric that used to fly you know in previous years and the point that we try to make when we're doing is that dallas is and where it is is that one of the principal failings perhaps of of the current administration is lack of acknowledgement of the fact that. has been in crisis or you know since the early 2000 and there's

a very recent history that seems to be repeating itself that you know so people are tired of hearing the same. the same sort of messages the tired are you know a lack of movement taking place and actually in many ways also the blame that is being attributed to externals rather than and a real sort of self reflection on what actually internally needs to be done to to sort of overcome the political and economic crisis that that's currently engulfing the bubbling patricia these sanctions have in place for almost 20 years and we haven't seen any dramatic impact on the political establishment in zimbabwe why would you think that this time it could be different. i don't think that is going to be any difference to to to to the current situation in zimbabwe there is targeted sanctions that are that have been in place of a of

a 20th and that change over time have had absolutely no impact because the current government does not to wish to see any change any change in behavior to how they operate with regard to the political scene. to ation as well as with regard to the election call electoral reforms means that it might to take away from them their power that they hold their power to continue to poland and no to the resources in zimbabwe to my to take away from them the opportunity that they currently have to continue in their corrupt activities so it's very difficult really to to think about if they would be any change at all in the removal of any targeted sanctions against individuals

as well as organizations that are owned by the p.f. leadership elites. and the inner circle are such. a holdings and you know recently we were we were reading about some of the measures that had been put against traffic gura holdings but still that has no impact aditi the and robert mugabe the answer was clear and other imminent sanctions are a violation of our national sovereignty and was seeing the same narrative by men and gaga i mean so any indication here that this government could make any concessions in the near future. just before i answer that question i think what i want to add actually really other previous point is it regarding impact is to actually also say i think what we're actually missing in the current analysis of zimbabwe is yes on the one devil it is very much

a business as usual sort of approach by government as a whole in terms of how they are perceiving their their power relationship with their with their. citizens but actually i think one of the very different things that that is important for us to bear in mind with regard to right now is that it actually is it a much more fractured political party and political entity then under president mugabe and so while on the one hand you can say that you know there's a skepticism around you know the fact that this is a lack of trust in the government i think they are actually also him and with him who are trying to implement the kind of reforms that are necessary. who who have a compass and of the fact. that you know things cannot be business as usual in any longer but the you know it's because of the fractured nature of. our

of the politics are of the political party at this point in time there's actually a tussle and it's almost like you see the schizophrenia. sort of engagement between you know one arm of the but is zanu and the other so on one hand you you know the sort of passing legislation that is supposed to sort of make access to information free you know if addressing the poster the public order. bill but then on the other hand that you know these you know constantly going out and arresting and abusing human rights activists and trying to question violently question. political protests so yeah so just showing patricia the international community the u.s. in particular are saying that they want to see some adverse about reforms particular when it comes to the election law reforms and the media reform do you think the government ultimately will have to make some concessions will come so

the election reform. yes i think that the government needs needs to to to to to do something but i think what we know is that it's not going to to to be possible for for for the government to make any concessions the government is not willing to change as we have already touched on the fact that sanctions have been in pause of all these targeted groups of individuals and organizations they have been asked to to to reform they have been asked to ensure that there is rule of floor in the country and we are not seeing any change of movement from the current government it is unlikely that they are going to change i think what is needed is a new government what is needed for zimbabwe today is new leadership because the longer that the current standard p.f.

led government stays in power we are going to see a continuation of the human rights are abuses that we have witnessed on the left of august 28th that we with witnessed in in january when 17 people were killed and 50 women raped and just most recently on the 18th of october 29th seen a young vendor a young man who was out to trying to earn a living was assaulted by the police and he died in custody and nobody has been held accountable i don't very much that there is going to be any change across any area we have been involved with the politically economically or media reforms one of the key sectors aditi where the u.s. in particular is looking for this is a change which is basically the roof or of the security apparatus in zimbabwe to

put an end to the. clampdown on human rights activists how do you see a possible reform of that parameters when the establishment itself remains intact. and i don't think that it is very likely i think we've written about this before actually if it really is it's. simply because of the way in which it's not just the political leaders in zimbabwe or that are corrupt it is actually also the institutions that lynn themselves to abuse and you know so you've got this 2013 constitution that is actually quite progressive but very little movement has taken place in order to have the litigation comply to that and i think you know security sector reform is something that is going to necessitate. a. refigure figure configuration of the relationship between the state apparatus and the military which at the moment i don't think is is likely especially considering

that in the post more garbage year and the military has has ascended in many ways to prominence. in in within zanu p.f. and has actually sort of taken on a more public role in the in the sort of daily management are of the government where they were tim in the past but trisha there are those who would say that if you continue as the opposition why then the way of all the sanctions. people might perceive that because of the sanctions the facing the reality of a they are facing a there for this could just backfire as far as you are concerned. i don't think that that is the position. that they need to be some change for for the people of zimbabwe but what i can say is that the current government is antagonizing the organizations that are giving

aid to to the country they are not paying attention to the fact that change has been called for or over the many is in that actually in order for us to move ahead we need a government to be in this new government and to pay attention to to the needs of the people of zimbabwe and if you when you have food shortage when you have poverty when you have inflation what do you think should come 1st sanctions or the call for a broad inclusive national dialogue. i mean i think that there are already calls for a broad inclusive national dialogue i think that my issue regarding sanctions because i don't think that the the focus on sanctions is necessarily 100 percent incorrect i think that they definitely do act as a deterrent for investment into zimbabwe definitely

a lot of the international community that are based in zimbabwe that you know when i spoke to them in august i look to the u.s. for direction in terms of how to how to engage with the if it is definitely some truth to that but i think that the you know what has to what has to come with that discussion around a levy eating sanctions has to be continued pressure on on the government in terms of pushing for the kinds of reforms that are necessary to really sort of transform zimbabwe a political into something that's a little bit more accountable transparent and representative of its people and you know it's so much my point regarding sanctions and sadek and actually even i see the e.u. has also lent its weight behind this for me is that if if they is that that solidarity from the part of the fact of the region to support this call for for

a dropping of sanctions i think there has to be a can comment and political intervention on the part of sadek on the part of the african union to be able to place the pressure or to be able to assist zimbabwe in that political transformation that is absolutely necessary but to show why isn't the african union leading the effort to start genuine reconciliation genuine reform in zimbabwe. i think because they have seen that there is the need to to to reengage they they know that without that reengagement they could be a disturbing lation of the southern africa region if the current situation persists in zimbabwe i think also i wanted to add to what had any of say about the role of sajak particularly with regard to the call for for sanctions what what

that means is that it could actually be a real threat to democracy in southern africa if a whole block of countries are standing up together without challenging. a government that has clearly. reached its own constitution that it it signed up so i think that the african union have seen the need to to renegotiate it to come to the table to discuss to make sure that the country can move forward and to bring together to the table all of the key stakeholders and interested parties to prove to progress the country aditi of this is the problem that people say that basically they were expecting some other which is the south african development community to take over to be the one leading the answers to this and they seem to be completely disconnected in denial about the are going to the people of zimbabwe

. yeah i mean it's a foreign a political analyst that has been studying static for a number of years now i would say that i don't think that i'm necessarily surprised i don't think. set it has been particularly representative on human rights issues in the region as a whole i think you know last year we saw the way in which it treated the elections of the d r c and its approach to the the sort of 2 year delay that it took for the elections to be held at the r c as as an indication for me that you know it's not going to it's you know it's not particularly sort of concerned with that with that imminent. end it really is just you know in terms of politics it's it seems to be dominated by the sense our solidarity politics between you know form and the gratian movements we have now become you know governments and is this you know sort of. a doctrine that

has been was instituted i think under president mbeki which which people still sort of allude to naing is this idea of quiet diplomacy that you know there's not going to be a public pronouncement you know calling out of the government of zimbabwe but they were deliberate deliberate behind the scenes i'm not aware that there has been consistent and. with the 1st engagement with the government behind the scenes in definitely in the past since the actions took place ok patricia i mean we understand the situation as it is we know about the political impasse in zimbabwe my question to you do you think from your own perspective. as a member of the visit today of all of the opposition party movement for democratic change that if there's any chance in the near future for a power sharing agreement that would pave the way to a transition to democracy in zimbabwe would you jump in. no i

think that we are very clear about that. present to mr has spoken on this issue on many occasions we are asked about it very often but but but we do not think that that would work if you remember back to 2003. to 18 we were in government of national unity and in those 5 what year is where the most successful year is for for the for zimbabwe as a country and soon after that the ruling parties that appear have decided to go it alone now with all that we witness in the country the lack of human rights the lack of rule of law the corruption and the lack of addressing issues would would mean that we we don't think that that is the way we would want to go what we would like the in terms of discussions is getting around the table

having some national discussions with kiss a cause as facilitated by non political entity and we want to we want a new government we are ready is there in d.c. i see your point of government and we think that sun p.f. as time is up really aditi less than 30 seconds if the situation continues as it is how do you see the future of zimbabwe. not very good i think it's a it's a very bleak picture you've mentioned already. you know poverty it's hurtling towards you know $50000000.00 zimbabweans next year will be food insecure there's no electricity there's no water that is at risk of cholera and that's just the sort of human human security challenges there is significant. challenges it's about we need to have i think that it's not impossible for it to do so but it does need to actually sort of show more earnestly that it is willing to
