SADC summit not necessary: Zimbabwe official
HARARE (Reuters) - An emergency regional summit to discuss the crisis over Zimbabwe's unresolved elections is not necessary, a senior official in Zimbabwe's foreign affairs department said.
"We believe this meeting really is not necessary because Zimbabwe has made it quite clear that they are going to announce the results (of the presidential election)," state television quoted Joey Bimha, foreign affairs permanent secretary, as saying.
The 14-member Southern African Development Community will meet on Saturday in Lusaka to look for ways to prevent the political stalemate in Zimbabwe from turning violent.
