"Military intervention was constitutional": Mugabe justifies ZDF action

President Robert Mugabe justified the intervention by the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) and said that it was triggered by concerns on the state of affairs in Zimbabwe.

Said Mugabe:

Whatever the pros and cons of the way they went about registering those concerns. I as the President of Zimbabwe and as their Commander in Chief do acknowledge the issues they have drawn my attention to and do believe that these were raised in the spirit of honesty and put of deep patriotic concern for the stability of our nation and for the welfare of our people.

He also said that the military intervention was constitutional and did not challenge his authority. Said Mugabe:

The operation I alluded to did not amount to a threat to our well-cherished constitutional order. Nor was it a challenge to my authority as Head of State and Government. Not even as Commander-in-Chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces. To the man, the Command element remained respectful, and comported with the dictates and mores of constitutionalism. True, a few incidents may have occurred here and there but these are being corrected.
