Zanu-PF has condemned the extension of sanctions against Zimbabwe by the European Union saying the heinous embargoes have caused untold suffering to ordinary citizens.

The EU Council extended the sanctions last week saying they would continue to monitor the situation in the country. In a statement, Zanu-PF secretary for information and publicity Cde Simon Khaya Moyo urged the EU to listen to the calls by Sadc, the African Union and the entire progressive world to unconditionally lift the sanctions.

“These sanctions have caused untold suffering on our people and continued to be one of the most serious threats to our country’s peace and democracy hence they must go, and go now,” said Cde Khaya Moyo.

He decried the agenda behind the sanctions and urged the opposition MDC in its various mutations to join the world and urge the EU to scrap the policy. Cde Khaya Moyo said progressive nations of the world had stood against sanctions on Zimbabwe- The Herald
