HARARE (Reuters) - Zimbabwe's main opposition party said on Saturday it had not reached a decision on whether its leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, should participate in a run-off election against President Robert Mugabe.

"If you want a yes or no answer, it's not going to come (for now) because there are issues that have to be clarified," Nelson Chamisa, spokesman for the Movement for Democratic Change, said after a high-level meeting to discuss the run-off.
