JON SNOW, PRESENTER, CHANNEL 4 NEWS|| We speak to Zimbabwean journalist Violet Gonda, whose journalism saw her barred from her home country for many years by former President Robert Mugabe.

South African response to Zimbabwe

“Protests [in our] neighbouring country have calmed down and life in the streets of Zimbabwe is returning to normal. The South African government is working with the Zimbabwean government to find a short and long term solution to the economic situation,” South African International Relations Minister Lindiwe Sisulu

“If the situation is not attended to, the current economic challenges can derail the political and economic progress Zimbabwe has made since the election of the new President.”
