	Robert Mugabe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		On March 9, 2003, U.S. President George W. Bush approved measures for economic sanctions to be leveled against Mugabe and numerous other high-ranking Zimbabwe politicians, freezing their assets and barring Americans from engaging in any transactions or dealings with them.
		Justifying the move, Bush's spokesman stated the President and Congress believe that "the situation in Zimbabwe endangers the southern African region and threatens to undermine efforts to foster good governance and respect for the rule of law throughout the continent".
		Zimbabwe's government said the President did not accept the Commonwealth's position, and was leaving the group.

	Schiller Institute President's Day 2002 Zimbabwe Ambassador
		Zimbabwe's presence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was a SADC [Southern African Development Community] decision, aimed at saving the people of the D.R.C. from imminent danger and genocide; and this was part of the wider SADC goal, to assist the African people everywhere.
		Zimbabwe is proud of its role in the D.R.C., and we know that the Congolese people are happy and grateful for the assistance they receive from the government and people of Zimbabwe.
		Within Zimbabwe itself, Britain and its allies are trying to destabilize the elected government of President Mugabe, in any way they can think of, in order to install a puppet government that will dance to their tune.

		Preparation: President Mugabe's latest moves to shut off Zimbabwe from monitoring by human rights groups, election monitors, and the press, and his new laws to criminalize anyone who criticizes him, are ominous signs that he is planning at least massive election fraud.
		President Mugabe must be put on notice that if political or genocidal massacres are committed by these militias or by elements of the Zimbabwe armed forces, he will be held personally responsible.
		Zimbabwe's leaders should be notified that if such massacres occur, the U.S. and EU will support armed intervention by a UN-authorized regional force, and President Mugabe and those who might perpetrate the crimes would be subject to prosecution.

		The survey was conducted in a period of intense discussion of proposed constitutional changes affecting the position of the President in the country, with critics demanding a diminution of presidential powers and the government proposing to increase these powers.
		Do you think the President should be able to serve more than two terms in office or should he resign after he has served two terms in office?" The result (seen in Table 19) was clear enough, with more than two-thirds believing that the President should resign after serving two terms.
		Among Zanu-PF loyalists nearly a quarter believed that it was time for President Mugabe to step down - though the 76 per cent who wanted him to continue as President was a testament as to how powerful a symbol he still was to that loyalist group.
