"Negotiations will continue under the facilitation of (South African) President (Thabo) Mbeki. We hope a deal can be finalized in the fullness of time," Chinamasa said. He declined to say when the talks will resume.

Chinamasa also said the country's parliament would be convened "sooner rather than later".
