unless we turn now to zimbabwe and andrew symonds in harare zimbabwe where the new president is embarking on his first week in charge a number of announcements expected today andrew and you were telling us earlier about announcement from the military. yes we'll go wants to see action and certainly he's briefed his security forces to get straight to it in terms of clearing things up this is a joint statement here from the zimbabwe defense forces and security services basically the police and army they say that there is a return to normality effectively all major deployments of the military in the capital and elsewhere in the country have have actually been withdrawn now and that's been done progressively over the weekend we've seen it ourselves but there will be joint police army patrols right the way across the country particularly in the central business district of harare and the reason for this is where this doesn't sound like the manatee at all it says this law enforcement agency already receiving reports of looting and illegal occupation of other people's properties particularly farm

separatist organization after this story is far from over david chaytor al-jazeera brussels and andrew symonds joins us live from barcelona andrew i understand a protest is warming up where you are at the moment what is been the reaction so far in barcelona stalling huge developments. will the jailing of half the sacked capital cabinet has really caused shock and anger right the way through catalonia not just among politicians but also the demonstrators those in civic life who feel strongly that there should be secession there's also some concern among those who back what spain has done concern about the way the courts are acting because there is a perception amongst many people now that the actions of a judge in madrid are all somewhat political and that is obviously having a resonance here the. decision in parliament to declare secession was exactly a week ago and it was this square. square where tens of thousands tried to pack inside last friday night we're going to see again tonight an attempt at a demonstration perhaps not as big and the mood a week ago was one of complete elation i haste

andrew symonds joins us live from harare andrew what sort of action can we expect from one and go when it comes to corruption and cleaning it up. well we're seeing it right away and god has promised to clean up this court case which will be starting behind me soon at the magistrate's court in harare of a different setting to the the grandiose celebrations in the sports stadium with sixty thousand people on friday is really the start of what could be described as a purge finance minister ignatius jones who was arrested on ten days ago when the military were actually moving in into harare he is accused of being involved in illicit property dating and the list of corruption charges more than one hundred properties owned by this man he was only appointed finance minister by robert mugabe in october but these charges date back ten years he's from the same roll area as mugabe and he stands accused of very large corruption indeed furthermore we've just seen the zone of p.f. use leader could zone i. brought in he looked very glum faced carrying a bag of belongings he's going to be accused of c

will be to transform the economy into one that can offer good employment opportunities andrew symonds has more on the challenges ahead and why some people are skeptical. but that's a. really . big. business. this is really a business. we must look at. let's look at. what to do with. the. well. with. the way. it was a look at the. weather . with a good. weather. but joining us from how to is. it is the c.e.o. of cambria africa which invests in the financial sector in zimbabwe thanks for being with us so what do you like to give us a sense of what things are like on the ground right now is there a sense of hope but there that big changes are coming or given that mr. part of the old regime could it just be more of the same i think there is a. a tremendous level of optimism in zimbabwe at the moment. i think that people would be well advised to not expect too much too soon. there will be a lot of. need for support and changes i don't think that. that the issue of more the same is really relevant i think it's quite clear that there's an interest in. making changes and zimbabwe and bringing

well andrew symonds joins us live now from harare obviously a historic day there andrew president got away said though he'd get straight down to work so what's happening there do we know what he's doing. what he said that and that's exactly what he's doing barbara you mentioned all the problems he faces well right now he's actually just left this location a hotel in central harare the peace justice and prosperity which is a civil society organization which is engaging with government wanting better human rights better business practice a whole range of things that are diplomats nearby in suites in this hotel he's got straight into dialogue with people who matter not necessarily party apology are in control of the situation on the ground in terms of power but how he engages with the people it's pretty remarkable what's going on he's really set out a range of things to do to address the list that you actually just went through with the graphic there to actually engage try and turn around the bankruptcy try and get loans and try and sort the currency out try to get engaged went on a whol

and we've lost andrew symonds there in harare apologies for that live television these things happen we do get a sense of what andrew was saying the key point there the key takeaway point is that robert mugabe is replacement has got to come back here and he'll be sworn in as president of course between now and free and fair elections he has to deal with the economy but as far as people at the i.m.f. are concerned he's also got to be seen to at least get the country on its first baby slope steps towards having a viable economy in a country where unemployment is rampant across all the main demographics will go back to andrew if we can in the next hour or so. well one of president mugabe's most controversial policies was land reform it made it legal for black zimbabweans to seize properties for my farmers without any compensation the farm a sort safety in neighboring countries like gambia the policy was meant to consolidate mr mugabe's support but instead it decimated the farming industry is turn your page. doug stanley loves the smell of freshly turned the site of his harvest makes it a

he won't go into exile the sources say mcgarvey expressed the wish to die in his home country andrew symonds has moved from the capital harare. there hasn't been an official announcement and there isn't likely to be warm but political and security sources are saying that there has been a deal between robert mugabe and the negotiators ahead of his resignation he had thought apparently that he had to have protection against any prosecution in the impeachment proceedings but no there was no offer initially of any form of protection but apparently there is now gabi has indicated not directly but indirectly that he wants to stay in zimbabwe he doesn't want to go into exile and by his side in that picture which again isn't official it was on social media it is apparently taken recently not in state houses saw elsewhere with grace mcgarvie there on that so far with three key figures behind them one of them a negotiator another one an intelligence member and a prominent businessman now what is happening now is that seeing emerson. get in place for a major move at his swearing in to actually announce

gaga was a longtime ally a ally of mugabe and his deputy before he was fired earlier this month andrew symonds now takes a closer look at him as an man and god was background. two leaders one side by side who became sworn enemies this is how an extraordinary sequence of events started this is in relation to tell me nation. of employment as vice president m s m n i gag had been sacked by robert mugabe are accused of being unreliable disloyal and deceitful speculation pointed towards grace mugabi the president's wife as being behind the move the two had publicly fallen out in the jockeying for position over who should succeed ninety three year old mcgarvie. that highlighted the two factions splitting the ruling party at the time the military and the war veterans loyal to. grace mugabe's sam who dubbed g. forty one fled abroad but his supporters planned their response and it was dramatic the head of the defense forces warned the army would step in if the purges of politicians it favors didn't stop hours later armored vehicles rolled into the capital harare we wish to assure the nation that he's e

questioning it's not clear though whether cardless pushed him or will return to madrid for the hearing andrew symonds reports from barcelona. carlos is only the mission trying to get international support while at the same time justifying why he left his homeland after charges were filed against him by the spanish prosecutor i'm not here to do in desirability because. this is not a village in. the middle of europe. this is not a matter of the. question of the. new relationship. i'm here. to act with freedom and safety. push them all says he needs guarantees if he comes back and he wouldn't say how long he'll be away in the organization that's involved in all the big process session demonstrations the mood lifts a little i think it only makes sense that at least part of the government can remain operative outside the country because it would not be safe for them to stay in spain pushed him on spent a low profile weekend apart from a call for peaceful support then came the heat on monday with charges filed and he was nowhere to be seen when he emerged in belgium his supporters have a range of emotions
