By Mary TARUVINGA Harare (AFP) - Le Zimbabwe, plongé dans une grave crise économique depuis une vingtaine d'années, a annoncé vendredi adopter une nouvelle monnaie baptisée "ZiG" et remplaçant l'actuel dollar zimbabwéen, pour tenter de lutter contre l'hyperinflation et stabiliser l'économie du pays.

Biden simultaneously abolished an earlier sanctions program on Zimbabwe launched in 2003. ...

By Archis Chowdhury A video showing a news anchor laughing during a news telecast is being shared on social media with the claim that it shows a Zimbabwean anchor laughing while speaking of the recent cricket match between Zimbabwe and Pakistan, which ended with a loss for the latter.

Robert Mugabe could have gone down in history with the same esteem and grandeur as Nelson Mandela. Like Mandela, Mugabe was imprisoned for several years for being a prominent anti-colonialist leader in Zimbabwe— then called Rhodesia. Upon release from prison, and with a little help from the international community, Mugabe became Prime Minister of Zimbabwe in 1980. And the first few years of his leadership were quite reasonable.
