HARARE (Reuters) - Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe said on Tuesday he has not ruled out negotiations with the opposition MDC but elections must go ahead on Friday to meet a legal obligation.

"He (MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai) now says he wants to negotiate. We say we won't refuse to negotiate but for now there is only one thing for us to accomplish...it's the legal process on the 27th of June". Mugabe said at a rally in Western Zimbabwe.
