Said the source:<\/p>\n<p>She (Tremont) recently sent a team to government officials to discuss the matter of her security. They came and presented their case. They said she had grown tired.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Embassy declined to comment on the matter, as diplomatic protocol prohibits the disclosure of details regarding communications between embassies and host governments.<\/p>\n<p>Lynette Nguluvhe, deputy spokesperson for Zimbabwe\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade, said they had not yet received any formal report on the issue.<\/p>\n<p>Presidential spokesperson George Charamba recently issued a stern warning to Ambassador Tremont, referring to her as \u201ca girl\u201d and suggesting that she would soon learn that Zimbabwean authorities \u201cdon\u2019t play\u201d when provoked. He wrote on X:<\/p>\n<p>I think this Tremont girl they sent to us does not quite understand the Zimbabwean psyche. She will soon know hake. We don\u2019t play when you angry us!<\/p>\n<p>In March 2024, the United States accused Zimbabwe of harassing, detaining, and deporting several of its nationals working in the country as aid workers.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) claimed that its officials and contractors had been subjected to both \u201cverbal and physical\u201d intimidation by Zimbabwean authorities. T<\/p>\n<p>The agency said the individuals were in the country to support initiatives aimed at promoting civic participation, strengthening democratic institutions, and advancing human rights.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Zimbabwe Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
