He told ZimLive:<\/p>\n<p>The inclusion of new names on the illegal sanctions is yet another unfortunate&#8230;step as Zimbabwe and Washington strive to normal bilateral relations.<\/p>\n<p>It is clear that there are figures in the American Political Establishment who hanker for the moribund post-colonial relations with the African continent. This wrong move is in contrast to the spirit of the second and ongoing Africa-USA Summit in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>This welcome yet belated Summit speaks of a USA that is revising its policy so as to treat Africa and its member nations on equal peer-to-peer basis as behoves sovereign nations in the ambit of the United Nations System.<\/p>\n<p>All African guest nations presently in Washington are speaking in unison against the arbitrary and unilateral sanctions that hamstring Zimbabwe\u2019s economic development.<\/p>\n<p>The sense of outrage is more glaring when the sanctions are imposed outside of the United Nations ambit.<\/p>\n<p>They purposely serve to upend humanity\u2019s goal of shared development prospects. People of goodwill hope and pray for a more positive and helpful inclination by Washington in the endeavour to overcome the residual gripes and needless rancour as the America government deals with Zimbabwe and Africa at large.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last two decades, the ZANU PF government has blamed sanctions for derailing the country\u2019s economic recovery path, claiming the measures have caused untold economic, socio-economic, and social suffering among ordinary citizens.<\/p>\n<p>However, the U.S. government, on the other hand, blames the ZANU PF-led administration for presiding over rampant state corruption, mismanagement of the country\u2019s resources, and gross human rights violations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
