statement on veto of UN resolution
Movement
for Democratic Change
July 12, 2008
The Movement for Democratic
Change appreciates the focus of the United Nation Security Council
on the Zimbabwean crisis.
We acknowledge that the
Security Council has recognized the magnitude of the problems facing
Zimbabwe and their impact on the southern African region.
The international community
has recognized that the violence in Zimbabwe is state-sanctioned.
Over a hundred people have been killed, many thousands beaten, tortured
and displaced and millions now facing economic hardship and starvation.
The suffering of the
Zimbabwean people is worsening every day and a peaceful negotiated
transition is urgently required.
In light of this, the
MDC calls upon the African Union to work with SADC in establishing
the framework in which a negotiated solution can be formulated.
The MDC would like to
express its gratitude to countries and organizations that continue
to support the Zimbabwean people in their struggle for freedom and
stability.
