4+Explain+Interdependence

media type="custom" key="4885167"  Here are some comments from leaders from some western countries:

" - Foreign Minister Alexander Downer of Aurstralia said in a statement that the Zimbabwe government should immediately release those arrested, lift the ban on political activity and implement immediate reforms. The statement takes direct aim at the policies of President Mugabe, stating that: "(the arrests) are clear signs of the Mugabe Government's desperation to cling to power in the face of its growing unpopularity amongst the people of Zimbabwe. The Mugabe Government's disastrous policies have crippled a once thriving economy, leaving Zimbabweans enduring hyper-inflation at over 1,600%, over 80% of the population unemployed and living below the poverty line and with the lowest life expectancy of any country in the world."

" - British Prime Minister Tony Blair's commented of the events of 11 March 2007: "People should be able to live under the rule of law. They should be able to express their political views without harassment or intimidation or violence. And what is happening in Zimbabwe is truly tragic".'

" - Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt said in his official blog: "It's totally obvious that the brutal acts of cruelty against freedom of assembly and freedom of speech committed by the Zimbabwean government during the peaceful meeting of prayers on 11 March must be firmly condemned."

These are only some responses from a couple of nations that feel the arrest and beating of Morgan Tsvangarai unfair, wrong, and unjust. The Western nations' responses and comments are very appropraite considering Mugabe is stripping the Zimbabweans from basic human rights.

Hopefully, this event will encourage many other leaders, such as Morgan Tsvagarai, to rise up and stand up to the corrupt, socailist system Mugabe built. Hopefully, these comments made from leaders of other nations awake the leaders in Zimbabwe. May the misuided leaders realize that the independence they fought so long and hard for in the Rhodesian Bush War is lost in the Marxist ways of Mugabe. If nothing is done to resolve this issue of ridding the citizens of Zimbabwe human rights, then the people of Zimbabwe will continue to live in agony searching or freedom.
