Zimbabwe: Mugabe's Regional War Talk by Tichaona Sibanda
Robert Mugabe has warned neighbouring countries to 'think twice' before launching an attack against his regime.
Analysts say this could be viewed as a direct threat to Botswana, who this week deployed an army brigade with artillery to patrol it's border with Zimbabwe. Botswana described the troop movement as 'a precaution' against trouble spilling over into their country.
Relations between Botswana and Zimbabwe came to an all time low at the Au Summit in Egypt on Tuesday, when they refused to recognise Mugabe's stolen election win. On Friday they reiterated calls for Mugabe's regime to be suspended from the AU and the 14-nation SADC community.
Foreign Minister Phandu Sekelemani told reporters in Gaborone that as a country that practices democracy and the rule of law, they do not recognize the outcome of Zimbabwe's presidential run-off election, and would expect other SADC member states to do the same.
