President Emmerson Mnangagwa is on his way back home after holding a meeting on Monday morning with President Nursultan Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan in the capital of Astana.
Mnangagwa cut short his trip to Eurasia after reports of an imminent impeachment against him filtered through over the weekend. The Herald quotes Mnangagwa as saying:
We have decided that we should not continue to cry as a result of the imposition of sanctions, which up to today have not been removed, especially by the Americans…
In a short message posted on Twitter on Sunday evening, Mnangagwa said:
In light of the economic situation, I will be returning home after a highly productive week of bilateral trade and investment meetings. We will be ably represented in Davos by Minister of Finance Mthuli Ncube. The first priority is to get Zimbabwe calm, stable and working again.
