KING Mswati III of Swaziland has applauded the efforts by the principals and negotiators to the unity talks in Zimbabwe and asked called on the international community to support the initiatives in the country. Addressing the United Nations General Assembly in New York today the King said the recent power sharing arrangement should be respected by the international community.

“It is for this reason that we applaud the recent signing of the power sharing agreement and the establishment of a government of national unity in Zimbabwe,” said Mswati III.

“We look forward with optimism to the rebuilding process and removal of all bottlenecks,” he said reiterating the call he made in Zimbabwe at the signing ceremony on September 15 when he officiated at the signing ceremony.

Mswati II said without the support of the international community and the developed world, the rebuilding process in Zimbabwe will remain a mirage. He also called for the same support to be extended to the whole African continent and the rest of the world.”.

“In this regard, we urge the international community and the developed world to fully support the people of Zimbabwe. In the same spirit we wish to see peacefully negotiated settlements in all conflicts that prevail in Africa and in different parts of the world.”
