Power sharing talks in Zimbabwe

The World

Power sharing talks continue in Zimbabwe following the disputed election there. President Robert Mugabe has so far refused to yield or share power with opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai, who has said he and his supporters have been under violent threat from Mugabe. The key stumbling bloc has been how Mugabe and Tsvangirai would divide responsibilities, and who would have the most power. Guest: Martin Plaut, BBC Africa editor
