Africa-Press<\/a> – Zimbabwe<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Presidential spokesperson George Charamba has dismissed United States (US) ambassador to Zimbabwe Brian Nichols\u2019s remarks on his purported desire to promote American businesses and their investments in the country.<\/p>\n

Charamba said Zimbabweans should not be excited over what Nichols said as he is trying to sound good on the eve of his departure.<\/p>\n

Posting on Twitter, Charamba revealed that Nichols is set to leave Zimbabwe in the next few weeks for a new posting hence there is no benevolence he can show towards Harare. Said Charamba:<\/p>\n

The current US Ambassador, Brian Nichols, is set to leave the country for a new posting in a few weeks time.<\/p>\n

He seeks to look and sound good on eve of his departure, hoping to overwrite the stupendous bad he did us over his serving years. We should not get too excited by his statements of fawned goodwill.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe must press on with her programmes under conditions of illegal American sanctions so she secures her growth IN SPITE OF, not BECAUSE OF, so-called American benevolence. We were, are, continue to be wronged.<\/p>\n

There is no benevolence or olive branch that can be shown us, as claimed by some sections in the media.<\/p>\n

America can only right-set her needlessly hostile policies towards Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the Post Reconstruction Trade Mission to Mozambique and Zimbabwe meeting held virtually Monday last week, Nichols said he will prioritise the promotion of American investment in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

He also described Zimbabwe as a country with \u201cincredible potential\u201d endowed by \u201ca wonderful educated, engaging English speaking workforce\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
