MDC Alliance leader Morgan Tsvangirai has responded to reports that he is in talks with the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) concerning a power sharing deal.
Tsvangirai denied the reports and said that no talks are taking place. Said Tsvangirai:
I am hearing from you, currently there is no talk or engagement going on between me and the army, I am aware of that information circulating to the effect that we are negotiating for a power sharing deal, this not true.
He however said that he was open to being part of a transitional government. Tsvangirai also responded to a question on whether he was open to working with President Robert Mugabe again and said:
Given the opportunity, we will certainly consider working with anyone for the purpose of liberating the people of Zimbabwe, we have already worked with Zanu PF in government of National Unity, but I would ask under what legitimacy he (Mugabe) will be inviting me, because circumstances have changed now.
