United Nations
Secretary-General Kofi Annan today welcomed the peaceful parliamentary
voting in Zimbabwe last Thursday, contrasting it with previous elections
marred by violence.
Through his
spokesman, he called on the Government to take the "responsibility
now to build a climate of confidence that will be essential for
national unity and economic recovery in Zimbabwe."
He expressed
concern "that the electoral process has not countered the sense
of disadvantage felt by opposition political parties who consider
the conditions were unfair," and he called on all sides to engage
in constructive dialogue in the period ahead.
