than maybe jacob zuma was with robert mugabe. what about the new president—elect, who was already the president effectively as a result of the coup last november, which they all said was not a coup, but everyone else did. clearly, robert mugabe says it was a coup. they have applied to return to the commonwealth. is that some potential leverage that could be used? i think that sort of soft power thing can always be used as leverage but i really question whether we should enter into such discussions with someone who was not just a parliamentary colleague or cabinet colleague of robert mugabe, he was his right—hand man. he was mugabe's hard man for a good chunk of time in the office, especially against minorities in zimbabwe. i also think the mdc has asked genuine objective questions that even if they get ruled against in court, should still be heard. people on the electoral roll aged more than 140, i know in a country where mugabe can try and become president again in his 90s, maybe longevity is good but it still seems unlikely

well absolutely if you think back thirty seven years of robert mugabe the person who ran the country for such a long period ended last year when the military intervened then the current president went and got what took over his former vice president and this election was of course a milestone for the country for the first time there was a good chance for free and fair elections in zimbabwe the question is can we really talk of free and fair election here we have had several statements from several election of service some are saying yes tendency others also from the european union they were much more critical but nobody really had a final statement nobody can really say if we really saw a completely fail action hero if they were wrecked on not this is a process that still has to be looked into and still probably take some time until we really can make a fair judgment of that and i mean you know briefly if you can what does emerson now have to do to win the support of his critics. well he has to try to unite the country has to bring the other side also in the bow this will be his majo

iwas there when robert mugabe fell and there when robert mugabe fell and there seems such amazing optimism. at the time. they thought it was a new era and then we saw the tragic deaths of these six people. and soldiers on the streets with live ammunition. it's an illustration of the fact elections don't solve things in the way people often na vely hoped, having a big popular vote. it doesn't make people necessarily come together because they dispute the results, especially when you have questions about the fairness and corruption of the process, as we have had in zimbabwe. robert mugabe going was definitely a huge moment, obviously, having been there for 30 years, a brutal, repressive dictator. you have to be hopeful for something after that will be positive. is an interesting piece by the africa expert who said he was part of the group was lobbied strongly to say don't have elections but a power—sharing agreement first. these things where institutions are not developed, can make things worse. that prognosis seems be borne out by what we see on the ground in zimbabwe this week. do you th

mugabe was ousted last year and only god one by only a small margin in the election gaining just six percent more than his rival now his opponent is the pro western nelson chamisa he's the current leader of the opposition and a recently qualified pastor he came close to becoming zimbabwe's youngest ever president being only forty years old. along with his supporters now demand the release of all the data relating to the election result a washington says it will be reviewing zimbabwe's election results and appealed to the losing party to quote show graciousness in defeat of the vote in zimbabwe again worldwide attention as it was the first in decades without mugabe's name on the ballot papers so quickly here's a breakdown of why this election matters. this election in zimbabwe is a huge milestone for what's been a very troubled country with an even more troubling financial crisis and here is why is the first time since one thousand nine hundred eighty the name of robert mugabe isn't featured on the ballots he was at the helm of the country for almost forty years and it seemed nothing

mugabe a lot of people we spoke to use during voting there would say things like. but if someone new in charge let's give them a chance he still has international goodwill maybe that could help people invest in the country and create jobs which a lot of people really really need what we saw just before the final announcement was the opposition some of them are winter from the cameras and started shouting and screaming saying they want to accept this result these results have been rigged and they're not happy with the fact that. gore's going to win the police been. on them drag them are. saying that the current basically gone from the cameras and because it is illegal so what will the opposition do we have two options one could be to go to courts they say they have evidence according to their own private results in tallies they say nelson chamisa the main opposition leader has won this election they say they have evidence haven't yet told observers the media or the barwon people what the evidence is so people waiting to see if they do have this evidence that this el

as we said, thatis robert mugabe's rule. as we said, that is the parliamentary result, what we have not had is the presidential result. and that will be crucial to the future of the country and what happens in these latest protests. much more for you on all the news on the bbc website. and you can get in touch with me and most of the team on twitter. i'm @bbcmikeembley. hello there. temperatures over the last few days have been topping out around the middle 20s celsius. warm enough, you might think. but for some over the next few days, we'll have values into the mid—30s. increasingly warm and humid through the day ahead. some sunshine, but also a fair amount of cloud in places, because as you can see from the earlier satellite picture, we've got this pipeline of cloud just ploughing its way in across british isles. and western areas particularly, where you're exposed to that moist south—westerly flow, seeing a lot of cloud to start off thursday. some rather misty, murky conditions for some coasts and hills. a bit drizzly

robert mugabe but now things are different this tension now because people don't know what is going to happen next right now as you can see it's just soldiers driving around not seeing them physically touch anyone is people push them too far what could happen. and how do we are expecting the situation to continue again as we keep mentioning until at least we get the results of the presidential vote the electoral commission has given the parliamentary majority two thirds of the vote to the ruling zanu p.f. we're still waiting for the presidential result and you were saying earlier that having the results might calm the situation but given how the opposition supporters have responded so far which is not at all accepting the electoral commission results. can we actually expect that when we have this final presidential result. that it will calm the situation that the protests will stall especially when you have the opposition leader nelson chamisa saying that he's won and his supporters who believe that. i don't think protests will stop if the opposition leader loses this election has b

when robert mugabe sent the army to matabele land in the one nine hundred eighty s. investigators say at least twenty thousand people were killed many in the region say the massacres were to suppress the support base of his political rival at the time survivors say there's been no justice and mugabe he was finally forced from power by the army nine months ago led to elections that took place in july some people wondered if zimbabwe's presidential election might bring change the opposition say it was rigged the electoral commission denies it's the party's presidential candidate incumbent president. was announced the winner he was once the right hand man of former leader robert mugabe at the time of the massacres he was state security minister the first major investigation into the killings was written by human rights lawyer david coltart. he says the involvement of men and some of his ministers means things were changing i think it's unlikely that they would ever want a complete truth telling because the entire story of their involvement will unravel from their perspe

yeah robert mugabe in his last interview that long rambling one before the election kind of said he would support me so he wouldn't support going to gaga that might have been a poison chalice for jimmy's but i'm sure they're not very well and they did send the representative of the family for nelson jimmy i think the party or would have been disappointed if he'd gone ahead to do that and i would also think that they really haven't decided what they want to do yet so it's a gesture of disappointment look i think most analysts have said that really the m.d.c. has won every election since two thousand why should they feel that this one was any different and they've been denied and the constitutional court is not a neutral court the zick was you know the military was behind it in many ways and in any case it was it was a very very close election and when you're talking about the sec even having to change the results three times so that they end up with fifty zero point six nine percent instead of the fifty point zero eight it indicates that there was a fairly incompetent body running that ele

what has changed since robert mugabe was president? there is a new sense of freedom, so an opening up of democratic spaces, freedom of speech, right of association, access, the opposition couldn't access, the opposition couldn't access particular areas, for example the raw constituencies, that seems to have faded away since november, since the moment of citation. so you have been quite optimistic?” since the moment of citation. so you have been quite optimistic? i am, andi have been quite optimistic? i am, and i remain very optimistic. i think that it is a departure from the past, an opening for us to not be captured by history any more but to engage the local community so as to engage the local community so as to establish more economic freedom and space for the people in the rural areas as well as other areas. but how did you feel when you saw ta nks but how did you feel when you saw tanks on the streets on wednesday and the fact of these six deaths that then happened ? and the fact of these six deaths that then happened? it was ve
