Arab League Boss Welcomes Zimbabwe Power-sharing Agreement

The Secretary General of the Arab League Amr Moussa on Saturday praised the power-sharing agreement reached last week between Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe and opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai scheduled to be officially signed on Monday in Harare.

Moussa commended the active diplomacy and tireless efforts made by South African President Thabo Mbeki who brokered the deal.

He expressed the Arab League’s satisfaction with the agreement, describing it as “a very important step to setting the ground for recovery of this brotherly African nation to achieve reconciliation and stability.”

In a different engagement, Moussa discussed with John Powel, the Deputy Executive Director of the World Food Program (WFP) about the food situation in Somalia and the Darfur region of Sudan.

They also reviewed WFP’s aid programs for Arab countries, with Moussa expressing his personal as well as the League’s support for the program.
