Zimbabwe may soon collapse: Annan, Carter
JOHANNESBURG, Nov 24: Zimbabwe could collapse within months due to its political and economic crisis, South Africa’s ruling party leader said on Monday, citing former United Nations secretary-general Kofi Annan and other prominent figures.
African National Congress leader Jacob Zuma said a cholera epidemic that had killed around 300 people in Zimbabwe and sent hundreds more fleeing into South Africa highlighted the need for urgent action by Zimbabwe’s political rivals.
