Farai Dziva|MDC-T vice president has said Zimbabwe is not a puppet nation such that external forces should not not interfere with the country’s internal affairs.

Gutu accused the United States of America of allegedly interfering in Zimbabwe’s domestic affairs.

“We respect the United States of America as a superpower and a global political force, but at the same time, the Americans and indeed, all other foreigners for that matter, should simply leave us to decide and determine our own destiny.

Just look at the havoc that American political interference has brought about in Venezuela. Zimbabwe might be a small country, but all the same, we are a sovereign and independent State and we don’t deserve to be treated like some satellite puppet state of the United States,” Gutu told a state run daily paper.
